Tombant de Morgiou

Also known as: Cap Morgiou

The Tombant de Morgiou lies at the exit of the calanque of Morgiou, where a magnificent wall drops beyond 50 m. Gorgonians, basket stars and red coral decorate the rock, and groupers, barracuda and the rare John Dory are seen. Old car bodies, once thrown from the cliff, lie on the sand around 50 m and now shelter crustaceans. Behind the cape the site stays sheltered from the Mistral, which makes it a good winter dive.
