The town, renowned for its sumptuous landscapes and beautiful beaches, offers<a href=\"https:\/\/international.geek-tonic.dev\/en\/surroundings\/best-activites-calvi\/\">water sports<\/a> enthusiasts a host of <strong>excellent diving spots<\/strong>. The discipline appeals to a wide audience, from beginners to experienced divers. It allows you to appreciate the <strong>diversity of marine flora and fauna<\/strong> on &#8220;the most beautiful island in the world&#8221; and, incidentally, to marvel at the wreckage of a warplane. The best diving spots are just a stone&#8217;s throw from the <a href=\"https:\/\/international.geek-tonic.dev\/en\/\">Calvi International campsite<\/a>.    <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/international.geek-tonic.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/beaux-spots-de-plongee-calvi-balagne.jpg\" alt=\"beautiful diving spots calvi balagne\" class=\"wp-image-2617\" srcset=\"https:\/\/international.geek-tonic.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/beaux-spots-de-plongee-calvi-balagne.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/international.geek-tonic.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/beaux-spots-de-plongee-calvi-balagne-300x120.jpg 300w, https:\/\/international.geek-tonic.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/beaux-spots-de-plongee-calvi-balagne-1024x410.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/international.geek-tonic.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/beaux-spots-de-plongee-calvi-balagne-768x307.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">A discipline for all levels<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"has-link-color wp-elements-7a6e7a2ad635d8933d651d75655f382a wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Scuba diving<\/strong> has been gaining in popularity for many years now. Children <strong>as young as eight years old<\/strong> can take up scuba diving. For these young adventurers, the EPIC diving club (\u00c9cole de plong\u00e9e internationale de Calvi) offers a baptism they won&#8217;t soon forget. The sessions are of course supervised by state-certified instructors, with all the precautions required for this sport. Naturally, the Corsican diving club also offers sessions for experienced divers, again under the supervision of experienced professionals and with appropriate safety measures. Everything is done to ensure that diving in Calabrian waters is an unforgettable, unforgettable experience. The club is affiliated to the <a href=\"https:\/\/ffessm.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">F\u00e9d\u00e9ration fran\u00e7aise d&#8217;\u00e9tudes et des sports sous-marins<\/a>. As a result, the training provided by its teams is aimed at <strong>people of all ages and levels<\/strong>. And holidaymakers don&#8217;t just have fun or satisfy their curiosity under the sea, as the certificates they receive on completion of their training are valid throughout France and the rest of the world.        <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">Diving spots in Calvi<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"has-link-color wp-elements-1912203e2b947ae16e0b59b6870f2585 wp-block-paragraph\">We have selected some of the <strong>best dives in and around Calvi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">La Pointe Saint-Fran\u00e7ois<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"has-link-color wp-elements-296a67ec116cbc974f7ca0172e66abe4 wp-block-paragraph\">Novices and experienced divers of all ages can enjoy this <strong>attractive spot, with depths ranging from 6 to 22 m<\/strong>. As you dive, you&#8217;ll have the chance to admire some real treasures, including natural arches and various species of fish and crustaceans. Experienced divers don&#8217;t hesitate to push the limits, sometimes descending to a depth of 23 m to discover a statue of the Virgin Mary submerged in the sand.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">The &#8220;Sec de la Revelatta<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"has-link-color wp-elements-d05883245024b1633e9d05e6e4bdb0e5 wp-block-paragraph\">With <strong>depths ranging from 11 to 38 m<\/strong>, this spot, too, is accessible to divers of all ages and levels. The scenery is picturesque. We marvel at the succession of canyons, faults and vertiginous peaks. But above all, the site is perfect for discovering an abundance of flora and fauna &#8211; thanks to its proximity to the nature reserve. Sights that attract divers&#8217; interest include dente, groupers, moray eels, peacocks, sponges, anemones and gigones. Divers who can descend to greater depths have the chance to admire branches of red coral.     <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">Discovering the B17 wreckage<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"has-link-color wp-elements-314b0d46dca38ab591bd7f6060b5c831 wp-block-paragraph\">Everyone wants to see with their own eyes this <strong>American bomber shot down during the Second World War<\/strong>. When they meet it, indescribable emotions overwhelm the divers, who struggle to imagine the last moments of the man who piloted this monster of the air. The plane is all the more interesting because it was in French skies at a crucial time in the war: it was shot down in February 1944, just as German forces were beginning to falter. To admire the wreckage of the bomber, you have to descend to a depth of 28 m, north of the Calvi citadel. The B17 is without doubt the best-known wreck in the Mediterranean.    <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">Alone, with a partner, family or group<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"has-link-color wp-elements-7f2cdd79b3b922935d70f9ee936ba9b7 wp-block-paragraph\">Diving can be practiced in many different ways. The discipline is <strong>open to young and old alike<\/strong>, whatever their level. You can dive alone, as a couple, with your children or with friends. You can also opt for a package combining diving with Club EPIC and accommodation at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camping-castors.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">4-star Les Castors campsite<\/a>.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Calvi is one of Corsica&#8217;s most beautiful coastal destinations.
