About this site
Cap Negre offers dramatic underwater cliffs and caves teeming with marine life. The rocky drop-offs host colorful gorgonians, moray eels, and schools of barracuda. Strong currents attract pelagics, making it ideal for drift diving. Visibility often exceeds 20 meters, with depths ranging from 10 to 40 meters. The site's volcanic formations create swim-throughs and overhangs, perfect for exploration. Warm Mediterranean waters and abundant biodiversity make it a must-dive spot on the French Riviera.
