About Roche Michel

Roche Michel is a boat dive in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez built around three rocky heads and coralligenous growth. Divers work a mixed Mediterranean profile with gorgonians, sponges, morays, groupers, and seagrass edging the rocks. The site suits relaxed exploration more than fast movement, and it rewards steady buoyancy as the route opens out into deeper water.
