About Roche Maeva
Roche Maeva is a boat-accessed rocky dive in the Cap Roux reserve, set up as a technical outing for experienced scuba divers. The terrain is all about broken rock, ledges, and faces that hold Mediterranean life, with gorgonians on some sides and regular sightings of groupers, barracuda, and lobsters. It suits controlled, deliberate dives rather than casual sightseeing, and it works best when conditions are settled enough to let you read the relief calmly.
