Rocher au Mérou

The rock is named after its fish, and that is most of what the public record says about it. It runs to roughly 24 m, deeper than the town's other listed site, which puts it past the entry-level depth limit and shortens the no-decompression time you have to work with. Plan it as one deliberate dive rather than a long wander around the structure.

Groupers and dentex are the species reported on Tabarka's dives, and the grouper is what gives this rock its name. Beyond that there is no published description of the entry, the route or the shape of the site, so what you actually do underwater comes from the briefing and the skipper's local knowledge rather than from anything written down in advance.

No position is published for the rock in any reachable source, so the point shown on the map here is Tabarka's own coordinate and not the site. Access is by boat from the marina, with the one remaining club in town running the trips at 9h and 14h. The water is not especially clear and the sea is sometimes rough; June and September are the months named as the best to dive here.
