About This Dive Spot
Le Galia is a wreck dive located to the north of Molène, resting at a depth of 20 meters on a rocky substrate that is covered with kelp. The wreck, a steamer that sank in 1898, is subject to strong currents, making it essential for divers to have experience in such conditions. Scattered around the site, divers can find remnants of crockery, and the ship's anchor is situated in the sand adjacent to the wreck. The marine life around the wreck includes various species such as Vieilles, coquettes, and lieus, while crustaceans can be found concealed within the structure of the wreck.
