The part near the small rocky islet is a set of small rocky plateaus interspersed with faults at shallow depths of about 12 to 20 meters. This set promotes the practice of beginner divers, including baptisms while the visit of coralligenous bottoms will be more suitable for diving for PE3m level 10 divers or more. Visibility is generally good and the current very weak. Perfect conditions to enjoy the place. These shallows are populated by species of rock fish such as yellow black-headed gobies, blennies, pomfrets, serrans writing or crenilabras of all kinds. The rocky ridges are dominated by very large schools of saps and black-headed seabreams but sometimes also small schools of Mediterranean barracudas. The faults in the collarigen beds are ideal for observing numerous lobsters and rock crawfish.
