🌊 Bonifacio – The city of cliffs
Perched atop high limestone cliffs, Bonifacio offers a breathtaking spectacle. From Charles V to Napoleon Bonaparte, many illustrious travellers have been struck by its beauty. The writer Antoine Pasquin, known as Valery, nicknamed it ‘the picturesque capital’, a perfect summary of the emotion aroused by this unique city.
With its narrow streets steeped in history, its magnificent sea views and its excursions to the islands of Lavezzi and Cavallo, Bonifacio leaves a lasting impression.
But this exceptional setting is also fragile: whether you are a day visitor, a diver or a hiker, you can help preserve this natural heritage by adopting good environmental practices.
🌟 Bastia – Between baroque and modernity
In the north of the island, Bastia charms visitors with its baroque appeal and Mediterranean vitality. A seaside resort, gastronomic capital and cultural hub, the city opens the doors to authentic Corsica.
Stroll through its picturesque streets, discover its majestic oratories and churches, wander around the Old Port or admire the citadel standing proudly on its rocky promontory.
A City of Art and History, Bastia reveals itself to be multifaceted: elegant and mysterious, creative and modern, timeless and lively.
Beyond its palaces and façades, Bastia invites you to explore its secrets and savour its unique atmosphere.
