On January 3rd, 2023 at around 8:00 p.m., during the end of a dive by two recreational divers, both experienced, expert and local people found themselves in an emergency situation on the surface of the water due to the heavy seas caused by the storm. The 52-year-old, who later died, was thrown several times against the promenade wall or the jetty by the waves until he lost consciousness. Without a regulator in his mouth, the victim floated on his stomach on the choppy surface of the water for several minutes until he was finally pulled ashore by his diving partner and passers-by rushing towards him. The deceased's diving partner was taken to the hospital in shock.
