Pointe de Montremian
A rocky tongue running north from the north-west tip of Bagaud island, next to Port-Cros, down to about 35 m. Noble pen shells stand in the posidonia, alongside the classic Port-Cros fauna of congers, morays, gorgonians and scorpionfish.

- Permit: Port-Cros National Park waters (Port-Cros): scuba diving is forbidden without a park dive authorisation. Each diver or dive centre registers on CaPeL (capel.portcros-parcnational.fr), signs the dive regulation and reports dives; the boat's 'plongée' sticker is collected at a park house. Max 40 divers at a time per site, no anchoring within 100 m of dive sites, use the dive buoys (max 3 boats, none over 15 m). At La Gabinière, La Croix, Le Vaisseau and La Galère someone able to move the boat must stay aboard 9–17 h in the May–June peak periods and in July–August. Visiting divers normally dive with a registered centre. Check current rules. (Source: Port-Cros National Park marine regulation leaflet 2025)
