About this dive site

This dive site, Pointe Lezarde, located in France, is a protected coral cliff offering a stunning underwater landscape. Its proximity to Burgos Point shelters it from strong currents, making it an excellent choice for beginner divers and training. The relatively shallow depths (0-20m) allow for comfortable exploration of the cliff face, its numerous crevices, and the variety of marine life it harbors.

The marine life at Pointe Lezarde is diverse and fascinating. Divers can expect to encounter knight fish, lobsters, frogfish, and turtles. The vibrant coral formations provide a habitat for a plethora of smaller species, making it a great spot for macro photography.

The best time to visit Pointe Lezarde is during the warmer months, from May to October, when the water is calmest and visibility is at its best. For both divers and freedivers, this site offers a relatively relaxing and enjoyable experience. Remember to maintain buoyancy control to avoid damaging the fragile coral and to respect the marine life by keeping a safe distance.
