Les Trois Ilôts
More challenging than some other popular dive sites around Nice, Les Trois Ilots offers a stunning cliff face and several massive pyramid-shaped rocks to explore. Covered in vibrant sponges and lush scarlet gorgonians, this site is home to shoaling bream and the barracuda that hunt them, along with John Dorys, anglerfish and dentex. Moray and conger eels can be seen here as well.
