About Le remorqueur
Le remorqueur is a compact wreck dive in the Bay of Arcachon, with a former tugboat resting on the seabed and acting as a small artificial reef. It suits intermediate to advanced divers who want a clear wreck profile, strong marine life, and a real exploration dive rather than a long technical swim. The site rewards steady buoyancy, calm timing, and a boat-based approach.
