Tide-dependent shore diving on Brittany's rocky coast.
Tide-dependent shore diving on Brittany's rocky coast.
Porz Amar is a shallow Atlantic shore dive on Brittany's rocky coast, with easy access from the nearby dive center and a tide-dependent entry that keeps the site approachable for newer divers. Divers come for the mixed sand-and-rock seascapes and the usual Breton marine life, and the dive is best planned around the tides rather than fixed times. It works best as a calm coastal practice site instead of a long sightseeing run.
