Pointe du vaisseau

Pointe du Vaisseau is a popular dive site on the southern coast of Port-Cros island within the Hyères Islands National Park. Named after a rocky point that resembles a ship's bow, this site offers a dramatic underwater landscape of large boulders, walls, and crevices descending from the shallows into deeper water. The national park's strict protection has allowed marine life to flourish: expect encounters with large groupers, barracuda, moray eels, and dense schools of Mediterranean fish. Beginners can enjoy the shallow plateau while experienced divers explore the deeper drop-offs. The exceptional water clarity and protected biodiversity make Pointe du Vaisseau one of the premier dive sites on the French Mediterranean coast.
