The harbor of Brest and Conquet

Limiting your scuba diving in Finistère to the Glénan islands would be an inexcusable mistake, as Brittany's waters are home to some of France's best dive sites. Between Brest and Conquet, the shoreline offers spectacular reliefs with a variety of scree drop-offs, fractures, and caverns.

The principal species of the Atlantic Ocean, such as lobsters, crabs, pout, bars, and congress, are likely to be found on these diving spots. The wrecks, which are many, attract many divers interested in history. The old ship Dellec, sunk during WWII, is without a doubt the most stunning wreck. The Émile Allard wreck is also a popular diving destination.
