SubTortue is situated in the Bay of Saint Cyprien, providing direct access to the waters surrounding the Cerbicale Islands Nature Reserve. This location offers a varied underwater landscape for those looking to explore the Mediterranean coast of France.

The centre operates with a focus on exclusivity and discretion. By limiting their 'Plongée à la Carte' service to a maximum of six participants, they ensure a tailored experience for every diver in the group.

The team is composed of passionate divers dedicated to providing high-quality service and instruction. They cater to a variety of needs, from children's introductory dives to advanced training for experienced divers.

Instruction is available in French, and the centre follows multi-school training standards, including FFESSM, ANMP, and PADI. For those looking to extend their logbook, the centre maintains a strict ratio of no more than six divers per guide to ensure safety and close supervision.

The training programme covers the entire spectrum of diver development. Beginners can start with Niveau 1 introductory courses, progressing through Niveau 2 and Niveau 3 certifications to refine their buoyancy and technical skills.

For divers looking to specialise, the centre offers Nitrox training with international recognition. This allows you to utilise enriched air blends on your future dives across the globe.

Nitrox is available for divers looking to extend their bottom time or reduce nitrogen loading. The centre provides the necessary gas for those completing their Nitrox certification or those who prefer using enriched air for their explorations.

For those not travelling with their own kit, the centre offers various rental options to ensure you have the necessary equipment for your dives.

The marine life around the Cerbicale Islands is diverse, with various species finding refuge in the protected waters of the reserve. You may encounter Nemo (Amphiprioninae) amongst the anemones during your explorations.

The underwater scenery is defined by a healthy Mediterranean ecosystem. Divers can observe a variety of fish species inhabiting the different structures of the reef and the seabed.

Macro life enthusiasts will find plenty to observe in the smaller crevices and amongst the vegetation. The area supports a range of smaller organisms that add significant detail to the underwater environment.
