Fos-sur-Mer is a coastal town in southern France with access to the Mediterranean coastline. While the area is known for its industrial port and salt flats, it serves as a gateway for broader diving along the Provence coast rather than a primary diving destination itself. Nearby dive centers operate along the coast within easy reach for day trips and shore entries, offering training and equipment rental. Direct city-based diving opportunities are limited, so most divers come for access to regional dive sites and the broader Mediterranean diving scene within reach by car or boat from Fos-sur-Mer.
