Has anyone here any experience of diving in this part of France?
We're off there in a couple of weeks time and want to fit in a couple
of sneaky dives there.
Recommendations for Dive Centres in the area?
Thanks
Henry

Don't know the diving there, but you MAY be better driving down the 
coast a bit and into Spain to Estartit

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&q=Perpignan,+France&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&resnum=1&ct=title

which has a marine nature zone around the island off shore and is 
stuffed with dive shops - quite a nice little town as well - not overly 
touristly as far a spain is concerned - caters for British coach trips 
staying in caravan parks mostly.

I believe it still requires a recent medical test, before they let you
into the water?

At least this was what I experienced 2 yrs ago in France, no matter
how many certificates I showed them....
