The Corsican Coast
Corsica, France
The most mountainous region of the Mediterranean, Corsica, is nicknamed the scented island because of the intoxicating perfumes that fill its maquis, or bush lands. With 620 km of coastline, more than 200 fine beaches, nature reserves and mountain retreats, Corsica is the ideal island to explore by chartered Yacht. Sail for one or two weeks with an intimate group of people of your choice, with nothing but the highest standards of comfort and service. If you prefer, you may also sail the boat yourself. A preview of what awaits you:
The rare beauty of the island of Macinaggio - with its charming coves, ancient watchtowers and islets where seagulls nest - can be best appreciated from the sea. The beauty and the variety of Capraia’s landscape is not to be missed: steep ruddy cliffs; secluded, jagged, green inlets; incredibly white beaches touched by a crystal sea; rough mountains and gentle hills speckled with famed bountiful vineyards. Venture to Northern Sardinia to witness one of the Mediterranean's most beautiful treasures - Archipelago de la Maddalena, including the islands of Spargi, Budelli, Razzoli and Santa Maria. Calvi, a small village, has a dreamlike quality. Highlighted by the vivid red of the surrounding rocks, its short stretch of stony beach and few quaint houses are only accessible by sea or foot.
