About this site
Champignons is a shallow reef dive suited to all levels, reaching a maximum depth of 12 metres and requiring around 15 minutes of navigation time. The site takes its name from certain rocks whose shape resembles mushrooms, giving the terrain a distinctive, recognisable character.
The shallow water makes it an ideal choice for beginners, and the gentle conditions mean divers can take their time exploring the mushroom-shaped rock formations without dealing with strong current.
Marine life at Champignons includes turtles, octopus, and lobsters.
