About Pierre Jaques
Pierre Jaques is a boat-accessed Mediterranean wall and plateau dive beyond the Fourmigue, reached on a long sail from the Cannes area. The site begins shallower and drops along scattered rocks to a deeper gorgonian-covered slope, with red gorgonians, groupers, octopus, and corbelles giving the dive its character. It works best for divers who enjoy structure, open-water boat logistics, and a muted but very textured reef scene.
