Boat-access Port-Cros ridge with crevices and a mixed rock-sand profile; current is usually present but manageable.
About Pointe du Vaisseau
Pointe du Vaisseau is a boat dive on the south-east side of Port-Cros, built around a rocky ridge that can be worked on either face. The site drops into a mixed rock-and-sand profile with cracks, ledges, and coralligenous growth, and it is generally more manageable than the hardest-flow Port-Cros dives nearby. Expect a protected-park feel, strong Mediterranean fish life, and reliable groupers around the structure.
