About Le Sec des Belges
Guided boat sec off the Revellata side of Calvi, near STARESO, with a shallow rocky crown that opens onto deeper ridges and boulder lines. Plan it as a calm-water Mediterranean training and photo dive: stay conservative on the outer rock, expect clear water and steady fish life, and use a Calvi operator for the boat route and surface logistics. The shallow top suits easy snorkel work, while the deeper side gives experienced divers more relief without turning the site into a high-friction dive.
