Stage épaves (3 journées, 6 plongées)

This intensive five-day Stage Épaves (Wreck Diving Course) at Tiki Dive offers ten dives specifically targeting the significant wrecks scattered across Cavalaire Bay and the Port Cros National Park. Designed for highly experienced divers, this technical level course is ideal for those holding a Level 3 certification or an advanced Level 2 certification who are progressing towards advanced qualifications such as the 60-meter supervised diver. The program focuses on the practical application of deep water diving skills, with target wrecks situated between 40 and 60 meters, demanding excellent physical fitness and recent, consistent deep diving experience from participants. The course is conducted under the auspices of CMAS and FFESSM certifications, reflecting Tiki Dive's commitment to recognized training standards.

Participants will explore renowned wreck sites within the protected waters of the Port Cros National Park, a prime location for underwater exploration. While specific monthly climate data is not provided, the Mediterranean waters in this region typically offer good visibility, especially during the spring and autumn months, creating excellent conditions for wreck penetration and detailed site assessment. The depth range of 40-60 meters ensures that divers will encounter a variety of marine life adapted to these deeper environments, adding an ecological dimension to the wreck exploration.

Tiki Dive, operating in this historically rich diving area, facilitates this advanced training with a focus on safety and immersion. The center supports its divers by offering daily meals served directly on board the dive vessel, enhancing the expeditionary feel of the course. For those seeking a complete immersion, overnight stays on the yacht are available, allowing participants to fully engage with the wreck diving experience. The Dive Director retains the authority to modify dive plans, prioritizing participant safety and adapting to prevailing weather conditions, a standard practice in technical diving operations.

To enroll in this demanding Stage Épaves, prospective participants must demonstrate a high level of diving proficiency and physical readiness. This includes recent and consistent experience in deep water diving, as the course dives will reach depths between 40 and 60 meters. The intensive nature of the five-day program, comprising ten dives, requires participants to be well-prepared for challenging conditions. While specific equipment requirements are not detailed, advanced wreck diving typically necessitates specialized gear suitable for deep and potentially overhead environments, alongside standard technical diving equipment. The course structure emphasizes practical application and skill refinement in a real-world wreck diving context.
