This dive site, Eilenroc, is a picturesque, shallow rocky cove situated at the tip of Cap d’Antibes in France, accessible via the scenic Chemin des Douaniers. It offers nice rocky beds for exploration. Given its small size and maximum depth of 3 meters, navigation is straightforward, making it an ideal spot for relaxed aquatic activities rather than complex dives. There is no significant history or story provided beyond its location south of the Villa Eilenroc.
Beneath the surface, visitors can observe various fish species inhabiting the rocky beds. While not a site known for large pelagics, the environment is suitable for typical Mediterranean reef fish and small invertebrates, providing opportunities for casual observation and macro photography for very small subjects.
The best time to visit this site would be during calm weather to facilitate easier access to the water, which is noted as potentially tricky. Its very shallow nature makes it perfectly suited for beginner divers, snorkelers, and freedivers seeking a tranquil, easy-access location to practice skills or enjoy the simple beauty of a Mediterranean cove without strong currents or deep water challenges.
