Short boat hop from the local dive center; expect an artificial reef, variable visibility, and easy-to-moderate current.
About Lydia 2
Lydia 2 is an artificial dive site off Port-Barcarès, opposite the Lydia liner, with boulders and hard structure that hold conger, moray, bream, and barracuda. It is a short boat dive for intermediate divers who are comfortable working a compact artificial site rather than a wide natural reef. Visibility can change quickly, so the best dives stay close to the guide and use the reef blocks carefully.

Local Intel For Lydia 2
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
This is a compact artificial site, so good trim and slow turns around the boulders matter more than distance.
Freediving
Not a casual freedive spot; the structure is better suited to scuba because the useful features sit below the surface.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel-first site; the main structure sits below the surface on the artificial reef.
