About Le Muscadin

A wreck dive. You get in from the shore. It suits Advanced divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces NE: swell from the NE reaches it, and wind from the SW blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 38 km away. The sea is about 1°C in February, its coldest month (drysuit), and 16°C in August, its warmest (7 mm wetsuit and hood). For experienced divers the best months are usually May, June, July and August, with about 7 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Saint-Pierre.

Day scores are the conditions out of 80, from the two best daylight readings: a morning and an afternoon dive. Sea is the open water's waves near the site, in metres, halved for a sheltered site. Wind and gusts are in knots (10 kn is about 19 km/h); "boats in" marks gusts that keep dive boats in. This week's visibility, the current and the life no free forecast gives.
