ANMP Level 1 diving course in Le Marin, Martinique

Pass your ANMP certification and learn to dive to a depth of 20 m during a 2 to 3 day course in Le Marin, Martinique!

The ANMP Level 1 certification requires the completion of 5 dives and theoretical courses: at the end of the course, the diver is able to dive to a depth of 20 m, in a group supervised by a guide!

You will learn as you dive to manage yourself on the dive:

- assembling the equipment,
- launching the boat,
- immersion, stabilization above the sea bed,
- evolving with other divers,
- monitoring your air, and returning to the surface!

Little by little, after the realisation of safety exercises such as the emptying of the mask and the release - recovery of the mouthpiece, you will evolve more deeply and on different sites in the south of Martinique, around Le Marin.

At the end of the course, you will leave with a logbook, pictures full of eyes and you will receive at home your diver card!

Immersion Caraïbes takes you to different diving spots:

Borgnese Point

Site for all, from beginners to experienced divers.
The anchorage near the coast offers a sheltered area ideal for beginners. The shallow water under the boat (4/5m), the turquoise water studded with darker patches ("coral potatoes") invites the diver to come and discover the Martinique sea bed.

Beginners will stay on the plateau in the middle of swarms of small coral fish (castagnoles, damsels, juvenile gorettes, etc.).

Caye des Boucaniers

A site for everyone but more exposed on the surface, often agitated.
Beginners dive on the shallow plateau, on the edge of a drop off richly populated by a jumble of multicoloured sponges (yellow, purple, orange and blue). It is not uncommon to come across Royal Angels or French Angels, as well as large paddlefish!

On the 12 meters deep plateau you will find a compact ball of yellow pikefish in a tightly packed row.

The Aquarium

The name says it all: this is an interesting and richly populated site, ideal for PE12 and Level 1s!

In the 7 to 15 m zone, you will see schools of gorettes in all directions, stealthy passages of kingfish, wandering manioc in the water, trumpet fish looking for their meal, etc. And don't forget to poke around in the holes: you will find lobsters!

Ti' Mur/Voilier

Very nice site, accessible to all.
Under the boat, the descent is about ten meters, on the plateau, near the drop-off. The beginning of the drop off is well marked, quite steep then gently sloping down over 20 m.

At the path, you will go along the "wall" in search of lobsters, moray eels and lambi, without forgetting to raise your head to observe thazards, barracudas or maniocs which pass over your heads! Then, you will cut the plateau to go and meet the schools of pagas, gorettes, etc.

Garden of Sainte Luce

Off Sainte-Luce, this site is remarkable for the diversity of its corals!

The 7 meters anchorage on the plateau allows all levels of divers to dive. The banks of maniocs pass by, the kingfish follow one another in the open water, and the mounds of coral and the large gorgonians are impressive!

Photos and videos are offered for all dives. Remember to take a USB key or SD card with you to recover them and keep memories of your diving course at Le Marin, Martinique!
