Les Moyades
★★★★☆
(1,576)
Small rocky island located south of Marseille, off the Calanques massif. It is part of the Riou archipelago, a beautiful canyon followed by a drop off. It is not uncommon to see groupers, greater forkbeards, eels, anthias, damsel fish and even barrakudas.
One of the most beautiful sites in Marseille because of its biodiversity and its biomass. It is accessible for all levels and even for snorkeling.
