Located off the red porphyry cliffs near Théoule-sur-Mer in the Bay of Cannes, La Trompette features fractured rocky plateaus, step-like drop-offs, and sandy channels bordered by Posidonia oceanica meadows. The terrain provides extensive shelter for Mediterranean marine life, with crevices hiding octopuses and morays while schools of damselfish hover above the boulders.
Rugged red rock formations transitioning into lush Posidonia sea grass beds
Frequent encounters with Mediterranean moray eels and octopuses tucked into rock crevices
Clear coastal waters sheltered from prevailing westerly winds
