About Le Remorqueur

Le Remorqueur is a relaxed wreck dive on an 18-meter tugboat off Tintamarre, valued for its simple profile and the marine life that gathers around the hull. The site is easy to read underwater and gives divers a clear wreck-and-reef mix rather than a long, technical swim. Plan it as a boat dive with reserve moorings and choose calmer conditions so the approach and time on the wreck stay comfortable.
