About La petite Vallée
La petite Vallée is a boat-access rocky site in the Gulf of Valinco near Porto-Pollo, where a shallow rock head and three parallel rock bands give the dive a slow, readable shape. The site is a classic Corsican structure dive: rock relief, deliberate passes along the bands, and a reputation for rewarding divers who like to work a site carefully for groupers and morays.
