Which snorkelling trip in Menton takes you away from the shore to the shallow waters around Cap-Martin? Palmes Beach offers an underwater excursion departing from Garavan harbour, with a boat trip towards Cap-Martin or, depending on the programme, the Italian coast.
A guided surface-water excursion
The outing uses fins, a mask and snorkel or a full-face mask. Equipment is included, and a state-qualified diving instructor supervises the trip. Most of the excursion takes place at the surface, with the option of short dives into shallow water.
A dedicated snorkelling activity in Menton
The package includes approximately one hour of swimming and requires participants to feel comfortable in the water. In 2026, Palmes Beach offers this snorkelling excursion as a separate activity from its scuba dives.
This experience stands out for its boat departure from Garavan and the opportunity to reach Cap-Martin or the Italian coast, rather than staying on a coastal route starting from a beach.
