Discover the most beautiful snorkeling spots in Corsica around Cargèse and Piana with A l'Eau Rando!

From the port of Cargèse, set off on a snorkeling trip in the west of Corsica, offering wonderful snorkeling spots in the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean! You will board a semi-rigid boat with a qualified instructor who will take you to the first snorkeling site where you will get the necessary equipment (fins, mask and snorkel) before diving into the superb natural pool of Capo Rosso. You will then head off to a second site offshore, above an incredible drop off.

During your snorkeling trip, you will discover the richness of the fauna and flora of the seabed of Southern Corsica and will take advantage of your guide's explanations to learn more about the species present on each site: sars, oblades, peacock wrasse, juvenile groupers, etc. And with a bit of luck, you may even spot dolphins and big fish such as tuna!

Don't hesitate any longer and go on your next snorkeling trip in Corsica, between Cargèse and Piana!

Nous avons réalisé une sortie en mer pour faire du snorkeling, nous avons reçu du matériel de qualité (palme, masque combiné tuba, combinaison) la combinaison est très utile pour nous permettre de flotter et donc de profiter sans trop se fatiguer.
