About this site
Le Caboteur lies off the coast of France near Marseille, in the waters around 43.33°N, 5.32°E off the Mediterranean coastline. The site reaches a maximum depth of around 54 metres, putting it firmly in deep, technical diving territory rather than a casual recreational dive. Its name, meaning coaster or coastal trading vessel in French, suggests a small merchant ship as the subject of the dive, consistent with the many wrecks scattered along this stretch of Mediterranean coast near the Frioul archipelago and Marseille's harbor approaches.
