UNVERIFIED — Le Magouer is an exact named France Atlantic/Channel dive site established by current operator, club or current exact-site evidence. Its displayed coordinate is a deliberately rounded locality marker, not the underwater site.

Before you arrive

Access notes

Use the current club’s tide plan and site charter. Never enter from prohibited port areas; confirm parking, entry, exit, current direction and surface support.

Plan within your training

Conditions and hazards

Strong tidal flow and narrow-channel traffic require exact slack/tide timing and local planning. Cold-temperate water, variable visibility, surge, current and boat traffic; use exposure protection, DSMB and conservative gas planning. Protect fragile habitat and avoid contact.
