Shore-entry rocky dive with gorgonians and a wild feel.
Le Lion de Terre is a shore-entry rocky dive near the harbor exit, best suited to experienced divers who are comfortable with a surface swim and a more open Mediterranean profile. Scattered rocks and a varied cliff line hold gorgonians, crayfish, groupers, barracuda, and moray eels, while the limited amount of diving activity helps the site keep a wild feel. Navigation can be tricky, so the dive rewards steady buoyancy and a deliberate route rather than casual sightseeing.
