This dive site, L'Aquarium, is aptly named for its abundance of marine life, making it a perfect location for Open Water Diver courses and beginner divers. The site is relatively shallow, ranging from 7 to 15 meters, allowing for a comfortable and manageable dive experience. Navigation is straightforward, with the rich marine life providing ample visual cues. There's no known specific history or story associated with the site itself beyond its rich marine biodiversity.
The underwater landscape is teeming with various species. Schools of gorettes are a common sight, moving in large formations. King mackerel are also present, though more elusive. Maniocs (likely referring to a type of fish or crustacean) and trumpetfish can also be observed, adding to the diversity of the ecosystem. Depending on the season, you might encounter other smaller fish and invertebrates as well.
The best time to visit L'Aquarium is likely during the warmer months (spring and summer), when water visibility is generally at its best and marine life is most active. For freedivers, the shallow depths and relatively calm conditions provide an ideal setting for breath-hold diving. Divers should always check weather conditions and current strength before starting their dive. Maintaining a safe distance from marine animals and adhering to proper diving practices are important throughout the dive.
