Abstract

The digest of Mediterranean underwater invites us to explore the coasts of France and Spain. The journey begins with a dive in Spain and continues with a visit to Majorca and its capital, Palma, 150,000 inhabitants. Another diving allows the identification of a stingray, mullets, groupers, some harmless sharks and a puffer fish with a swelling abdomen. In France, we discover the Catalan coast of the Roussillon and the Côte d'Azur. During a dive, it is recalled that it is necessary to obtain special permission to go up the amphorae found at the bottom of the water.
