Le danger du Toro

This dive site, Le Danger du Toro, is situated between Vacca rock and Toro island, marked by a danger beacon. It consists of two flat-topped rocky ascents offering a diverse and interesting underwater topography to explore. Navigation is relatively straightforward, following the rocky formations, but awareness of potential currents is crucial. There is no known specific historical significance associated with the site beyond its navigational hazard status. The marine life at Le Danger du Toro is abundant and colorful. Divers and snorkelers can expect to encounter groupers, moray eels, dentex, lobsters, corbs, and a variety of gorgonians in red and blue hues. The diverse flora provides excellent habitat for a rich array of smaller invertebrates and fish. The best time to visit is likely during the warmer months (May-October) when water temperatures are more pleasant and visibility is generally better. For freediving, it's recommended to plan dives during calm periods with minimal currents. Scuba divers should always check current conditions before entering the water and maintain awareness of their surroundings and depth. Proper buoyancy control is essential to avoid damaging the sensitive marine environment.
