This dive site, Calanque de Sugiton, is a beautiful, sheltered cove near Marseille, France, renowned for its dramatic white cliffs and clear, turquoise waters. Underwater navigation is straightforward due to the shallow depth, following the natural rock formations of the calanque. There is no specific historical dive information beyond its natural formation as a Mediterranean calanque.
Divers and snorkelers can expect to encounter numerous small fish species, vibrant red starfish, and various sea urchins among the rock formations and seagrass beds. The clear waters provide excellent opportunities for observing the diverse marine ecosystem typical of the shallow Mediterranean.
The best time to visit Calanque de Sugiton is during the warmer months, from late spring to early autumn, when water temperatures are most pleasant. This site is particularly well-suited for beginners, snorkelers, and freedivers due to its shallow, calm, and clear conditions, offering a relaxing and visually rewarding experience.
