Diving is changing the world with a stroke of the fins. It is to feel the calm take back its place, see the colors vibrate, observe landscapes that seem forgotten by time. And this summer, no need to cross the planet to live these suspended moments: from Lyon, several destinations open the way to warm, clear and welcoming waters, accessible by direct flight.

Whether you dream of volcanic cliffs plunging into the deep blue, teeming coral reefs, Mediterranean villages bathed in sunshine or mythical sites renowned worldwide, you are in the right place. 

Let yourself be guided: your next great underwater memory has never been closer !

Grèce Santorin Mer

Santorini, Greece 

Santorini attracts first by its white cliffs, its hanging alleys and its sunsets that stop time... but it is beneath the surface that the island reveals a more secret face. Here, the Aegean Sea meets a unique volcanic landscape: basaltic walls, caves carved by centuries and water of almost unreal clarity.

Diving in Santorini is like sliding into the caldera as in a natural amphitheater. Around Nea Kameni, the dark reliefs contrast with the electric blue of the water, and we follow the play of light between the faults, in an almost lunar atmosphere.

The island is ideal for mixing simple pleasures, taverns by the water, endless swimming, small coves of black sand and underwater exploration accessible to all. We dive in the morning, we stroll in the afternoon, and in the evening, we watch the sun disappear behind the blue roofs.

Malte, La Valette

Malta, Mediterranean

Malta is a condensed version of the Mediterranean as imagined in books: blonde stone, lively ports, colorful boats, warm energy... and, once in the water, an exceptional playground.

The archipelago is a world reference for its shipwrecks, placed like silent cathedrals: the P29, the Um El Faroud, not to mention the limestone arches and caves that make the reputation of Gozo. We dive there in clear, stable, welcoming water, where each immersion is simple and fluid.

The Blue Hole, in particular, offers a spectacular entrance into a cobalt-blue natural well, surrounded by sculpted walls. It is a place that stands out, without necessarily requiring much experience.

Between two dives, we get lost in the alleys of Valletta, we taste the sweetness of the island, and we quickly understand why so many divers return here year after year.

Corse

Ajaccio, Corsica

Barely an hour from Lyon, Southern Corsica welcomes you with this golden light that we recognize immediately. Ajaccio is the Mediterranean in all its generosity: warm waters, carved coves, white sand beaches and granite cliffs that plunge straight into the blue.

Beneath the surface, the scenery remains intact: posidonia, Mediterranean coral, curious groupers, multicolored wrasse... Corsica offers perfect sites to learn as well as to improve, protected from the wind and currents.

The most curious will extend the adventure in the reserve of Scandola: a marine sanctuary registered with UNESCO, where the red rock meets a water of a fascinating limpidity.

After diving, we find the imperial city, its terraces, its lively port... a simple, gentle, authentic break

heraklion-port

Heraklion, Crete

Crete is a world unto itself. A bright, gentle, generous island, where the sea is warm long after the end of summer. In Heraklion and all over the north coast, clubs welcome both beginners and advanced divers, with accessible sites, varied marine life and clear water almost every day.

What strikes here is the balance: beautiful dives, certainly, but also an immensely rich culture: Minoan palaces, perched villages, turquoise beaches, taverns at sunset.

Underwater, we explore easily accessible caves, colorful walls, rocky reliefs perfect for serene immersions. One comes there to learn, progress, relax... and often leaves a little transformed.

Egypte Charm Cheikh

Sharm el-Sheikh, Red Sea

Sharm is the coral dream in its purest version: gardens of intact corals, vertiginous cliffs, an explosion of marine life, unforgettable encounters with napoleons, turtles, fish-butterflies, schools of jacks...

Ras Mohammed park is one of the most beautiful diving sites in the world: a flood of colors, emotions and movements, and what to say about the Thistlegorm, the mythical wreck where time seems suspended. 

Here, we dive a lot, because everything is simple, exceptional... and addictive. The atmosphere, between desert and sea, adds depth to the journey. In the evening, Sharm comes alive with a gentle atmosphere, almost out of time.

Tenerife, Canaries, Espagne

Tenerife, Canary Islands

Tenerife is not just a holiday island: it is a living, volcanic and rugged island where the Atlantic Ocean plays with the mountains.

For divers, the site of Los Gigantos is a marvel: immense cliffs tumble into the water and form a spectacular setting, where rays, schools of silver fish and sometimes turtles evolve. The volcanic seabeds offer caves, arches and natural canyons, bathed in often clear water.

The island is perfect for combining adventure and softness: we dive in the morning, we go to explore Teide in the afternoon, and we get lost between small beaches, colorful villages and warm atmosphere.
