Pierre à Duval

Pierre à Duval is a shallow, coastal dive site near Six-Fours-les-Plages in the northwest part of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. The site features a gentle sandy/rocky seabed with a series of small ledges and patches of seagrass, making it suitable for beginner to intermediate divers. Entry is easy from a sandy shore or a short boat dive, and visibility is typically fair to good in calm conditions. Expect Mediterranean reef fish such as wrasse, damselfish, parrotfish, and occasional seashells along the bottom, with minimal currents. The site is often used for training dives and practice of basic buoyancy, with occasional macro critters in the shallows. Nearby towns—Sanary-sur-Mer and Bandol—offer access to dive centers and local services. Always check local conditions, as surf and currents can change quickly in this coastline.
