L'hélicoptère
About L'hélicoptère
This dive features a Royal Air Force Gazelle helicopter resting underwater, reached after descending into open water and then approaching the wreck structure. The aircraft was damaged at sea in 1993 and later relocated in 2003. Divers can observe dogfish eggs attached to the rotor blades above the cabin, along with a gerardia anemone.
