    The accuracy with which the cave has been reproduced is amazing. Only at the end, when they explain the creation process, do you realize how faithful it is. A beautiful experience and highly recommended.

  • Cosquer Cave exploration

    The tour is set in Cosquer Mediterranean, a three-story building with a partial replica of the Cosquer cave and its most striking parietal artworks. Begin your tour on the ground floor, above the ‘sea’, walking over a floating walkway to a replica of Henri Cosquer’s diving club, the diver who first discovered the caves. Step into an elevator to head down to the entrance of the underwater caves, where you board a six-seater exploratory vehicle that takes you on a 35-minute audio-guide tour of the 220m cave route. The illusion of the cave is maintained throughout the journey–the silence, the temperature, the lighting, the presence of water, and the quality of the overall rendering.

    End your tour at the Mediterranean Gallery on the third floor, featuring life-sized models of animals like cave lions and bison, while also exploring Homo sapiens' relationship with them.
