La roche bleue
La roche bleue is a deep boat rock dive in Corsica's Gulf of Valinco.
Local operator required
Boat access is handled by the local Porto Pollo dive school; there is no shore entry.
Plan this as an advanced boat dive from Porto Pollo/Serra-di-Ferro: clear water, a deep rock profile, and the best results on settled sea days.
About La roche bleue
La roche bleue is a deep boat-access rock in Corsica's Porto Pollo / Serra-di-Ferro area. The profile runs from a rocky top into a broader plateau and sandy drop-off, so the dive is all about ledges, cracks, and open-blue scanning rather than a shallow reef cruise. It suits experienced divers who are comfortable with a deeper profile and a straightforward boat briefing. Expect red gorgonians, nudibranchs, moray eels, dentex, and groupers when the sea is settled.
