Palmes Beach Menton

Open all year round, the Palmes Beach diving center is located in Menton's Garavan harbor. Olivier Faure, Paolo Marocco and Roberto Braida welcome you aboard the Yoyo, a 12 m long, 3.5 m wide launch capable of taking 30 divers and 2 crew members to Menton's dive sites, which extend as far as the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer. For comfort-conscious divers: on the Yoyo, you're sheltered from the sun, there are 2 ladders for ascent, a hoist to get your equipment out of the water, a wide sundeck for launching, 2 adjustable stop bars at depths of 6m and 3m for training, and plenty of space for rebreather equipment.

The Palm Beach Plongée boat can be used for private outings with friends and family, taxi-boating and birthday celebrations. Here you can take diving courses ranging from PADI/SSI Scuba Diver or FFESSM Level 1 to Level 3. Or simply try a scuba diving experience in Menton! Initially known for the wreck of the German Heinkel bomber from the Second World War, located 60 m below the surface, Menton's seabed offers interesting exploration dives for divers of all levels. Menton divers now meet up after the diving season for diving trips to the Red Sea and the Maldives.

Take the opportunity to laze on Menton's beaches, stroll through the Madone greenhouse, visit the Basilique Saint-Michel, the Pénitents blancs chapel and the Jean Cocteau museum. The colorful old town by the sea, with its markets set against the mountains, has a charm all its own, and its micro-climate means you can enjoy the season for a long time to come.
