Snorkeling in the Port-Cros National Park near Hyères, from La Londe-les-Maures

Discover the rich underwater fauna and flora of the Port-Cros National Park from the surface of the water during a supervised snorkeling trip to the îles d'Or!

The îles d'Or, also known as the Hyères Islands, are part of the Port-Cros National Park which is the oldest marine reserve in Europe. They include a total of 4 islands (Porquerolles, Port-Cros, the island of Bagaud and the island of Levant) easily accessible by boat to go snorkeling and discover their marine biodiversity! And it is from the port of La Londe-les-Maures, only about thirty minutes by car from Toulon and about fifteen from Hyères, that you will leave for a supervised snorkeling excursion to the îles d'Or.

This sea outing in the Port-Cros National Park will be done with an instructor who will guide you during the whole one-hour launch, not only to ensure your safety, but also to explain to you what you will have the pleasure to see during the activity. Customizable and adaptable, this snorkeling excursion to the îles d'Or will allow you to choose between several snorkeling sites in the marine reserve, including several dry ones (small mountains underwater), the Gabinière drop-off, renowned for its fishy waters, and even a wreck visible between 3 and 15 meters deep, the Cimentier. It's up to you to see which site intrigues you the most and can be explored depending on the weather on the day of the excursion!

Schools of barracudas, dories, moon fish and even turtles are waiting for you during your snorkeling trip in Port-Cros National Park, so don't wait any longer to enjoy it! Whether you are in Hyères, Toulon or even Saint-Tropez, less than an hour away from La Londe-les-Maures, this guided snorkeling trip to the îles d'Or will also allow you to take a short boat ride.
