About Poids Perdus
Poids Perdus is a Sainte-Luce boat dive that drops from a shallow plateau into a rock-and-coral wall with small coves, turtle shelter, and a deeper face that suits experienced buoyancy control. It is a classic southern Martinique route for divers who want a clear drop-off line, coral detail, and the option to work the wall in either direction with a local operator.
