Le Village is a miniature submerged village off Cap Dramont in the Esterel, born from an unfinished underwater film set and now made up of house ruins, a natural arch, and a rocky-to-sandy seabed. It is best approached as a slow scenic exploration dive: hold trim around the arch and walls, then work through the village layout for Mediterranean fishlife and a strong sense of place.

Typical Conditions
Calm, scenic, and better in settled sea state; more about relaxed exploration than strong drift or blue-water conditions.
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Includes an arch; use appropriate training and maintain clear access to open water.
Access Restrictions
Plan this as a boat-led site with local operator coordination rather than a self-directed shore entry.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Max depth around 25 m with points of interest including house remains, an arch, and a sandy section.
Freediving
Not a strong breath-hold target; the memorable structures are better suited to scuba-style exploration and careful trim.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel-first site; the main village features sit below comfortable snorkel range and are best appreciated underwater.
