Four dives made at different places off the coast. Including l'Île d'Or and Le Lion de Mer. But the highlight was the dive to the Rubis. An old submarine at 40 meters.
The team is very friendly and also speak good English, my French is not so good;-).
Underwater, my French buddy was also enthusiastic about finding and pointing out marine life.
Karin and her team thank you for this beautiful diving experience.
