The Téléscaphe (a portmanteau of "téléphérique" (cable car) and "bathyscaphe") was an underwater cable way, situated near Les Goudes, Marseille, France.
In the early 1960s, ski lift engineer Denis Creissels and alpine skier James Couttet set out to design a system that would make visits to the seabed accessible to the general public.
