Ouest Four is a combined reef and wreck site located 7400 metres off the coast of the Morbihan Islands. Divers can explore depths ranging from 18 to 22 metres, with an average depth of 20 metres. The site is suitable for beginners, though conditions require careful navigation due to visibility between 5 and 10 metres and mild currents that may strengthen. A boat is required to reach the site, and a surface marker buoy is essential for safety during ascent due to heavy boat traffic. Species recorded around this area include various crabs, sea stars, and molluscs. Divers should avoid contact with the seabed to prevent injury from sea urchins.

Book a guided charter from the local dive shops rather than attempting navigation independently, as variable visibility makes finding the site tricky without a local who knows the marks. Watch the seabed near the reef sections for sea urchins, particularly when kneeling to adjust equipment.
