About Le Cap Ferrat

Local Intel For Le Cap Ferrat

Community notes to help plan your visit.

Scuba Diving

Use the specific site to match depth and current: the area has shallow entries, drop-offs, and deeper walls, so pick your route rather than assuming a single profile.

Freediving

Shallower coves and calmer sites can work for experienced freedivers, but the area still has current and depth on many routes.

Snorkeling

Snorkeling works best in the calmer coves and shallow areas, not on the deeper wall sites.
