Activity description

Enjoy a day of scuba diving at Cerbère in the Pyrénées Orientales! Equipped with appropriate equipment and accompanied by professionals, marvel at the underwater biodiversity and get as close as possible to the protected sites!

When you arrive at the meeting point at 9 a.m., you'll be welcomed by the team, who'll explain how the activity works and lend you the equipment you need: wetsuit, mask, fins, etc. You'll then join the boat bound for the Cerbère Banyuls marine reserve, a not-to-be-missed dive site in the Mediterranean. Once there, you'll set off for your first dive of the day, a self-guided snorkelling trip. In the Pyrénées Orientales, dive and explore the Cerbère Banyuls marine reserve! It's an opportunity to familiarise yourself with the equipment, but also to discover the flora and fauna around you! You'll spend 45 minutes on the surface while your pilot watches from the boat. He'll point out the places to discover in the heart of the Cerbère Banyuls marine reserve and wait for you to return to the boat.

You will return to the departure point at around 12:00. You will then have a break before meeting up with your pilot at 2 p.m. to return to the dive site. Your 2nd launch, the 20-minute introductory dive, will be supervised and tutored by a state-certified instructor. He'll share his knowledge and techniques with you so that you get the most out of your first dive! Safety will be guaranteed throughout the underwater immersion activity. One by one, you'll dive with your instructor from a depth of 0 to 6 metres. At Cerbère, near Argelès-sur-Mer, you'll be able to admire some magnificent natural sites in the heart of the underwater reserve.

Fish, coral, octopus and starfish are just waiting for you!

Join the boat at Cerbère and let yourself be tempted by a day of scuba diving!
