Full day boat trip from Porto-Vecchio, South Corsica

Situated in southern Corsica, the town of Porto-Vecchio is the third largest commune on the Isle of Beauty. Bordered by the Tyrrhenian Sea to the east, the town nicknamed the City of Salt is the starting point for your full-day boat trip to the cliffs of Bonifacio... the most southerly commune in mainland France.
On arrival at the meeting point at the harbour, you will board either the ‘L'Avventura’ or the ‘Sperenza’: the two luxury ships available for the full-day boat trip from Porto-Vecchio in southern Corsica, organised by the Corsica Sud Croisières team. Once comfortably seated on either the ‘Avventura’ or the ‘Sperenza’, your captain will set sail from the Gulf of Porto-Vecchio towards one of the wildlife sanctuaries of the Corsican coastline... the Cerbicales Islands, otherwise known as a seabird paradise. If you're lucky, you'll be able to see cormorants, grey shearwaters, gulls and pale swifts in their natural habitat. After this zoological interlude, take the time to enjoy the gentle turquoise waters of the Mediterranean thanks to the snorkelling equipment on board... the perfect opportunity to marvel at the region's underwater flora and fauna.

Shortly afterwards, you'll head south again, passing close to Cavallo Island (the island of billionaires), then San Bainso Island and its Roman quarry, on your way to the archipelago of the Lavezzi Islands. Situated in the heart of the Bouches de Bonifacio nature reserve, you can contemplate these islands untouched by construction and enjoy another snorkelling stop in their protected waters.
You then continue along the coastline to the southernmost point of mainland France: the city of Bonifacio and its famous cliffs! From the deck of the ‘L'Avventura’ or the ‘Sperenza’, you can enjoy the bay of Piantarella, its lonely sandbank in the middle of the Mediterranean, and a Corsican aperitif to restore your strength after successive swims!
As you sail towards the south of the Isle of Beauty, take the opportunity to admire the beaches of Grand and Petit Sperone, not forgetting the impressive Pointe Saint Antoine before you arrive in Bonifacio.
Once you've arrived safely in port, your captain will free you for 1h30 to enjoy the history of this fortress city or simply to have lunch (not included in the fare), visit or go shopping.

On your return on board, the full-day boat trip in Southern Corsica will head back to Porto-Vecchio, its point of departure. A further stop for a swim is planned in the bay of Rondinara, then you'll follow the rugged coastline of southern Corsica, passing in review with planned anchorages at the beaches of Santa Giulia, Palombaggia, or Carrataghiu.
Whether you're a holidaymaker, a lover of Corsica or just a cruising fan, the full-day boat trip from Porto-Vecchio is a complete experience that combines history, fun with snorkelling and relaxation with aperitifs and drinks on board. Don't wait a single second longer to discover the Corsican coastline directly from the waves!
