About this site
La Pierre de Briançon lies off Jarre Island, one of the small islands in the archipelago south of Marseille along the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur coast, within the Calanques area. This stretch of the Mediterranean is dotted with rocky islets and submerged reefs favored by dive operators working out of Marseille and the nearby Calanques. Divers here have reported leopard sea slugs, Mediterranean morays, red scorpionfish, tricolored Felimare nudibranchs, violescent sea-whips, and yellow cluster anemones along the rock formations.
