La Marinedda is a stunning beach located near Isola Rossa in northern Sardinia. It is surrounded by red granite rocks and Mediterranean shrub, offering a long stretch of beautiful coastline where visitors can freely set up their umbrellas. The beach is popular among sea sports enthusiasts and hosts an annual global surf competition. With pristine water, shallow depths, and vibrant colors, it's ideal for swimming and snorkeling.
Playa la Marineda it's a nice beach close to Isola Rosa. If you don't rent a car it's not easy to get to Isola Rosa from Alguero. We had to change 3 busses to get there and it took a whole day. Having this in mind, Isola Rosa and it's beaches are nice. You just need patience to get there 😂
There are some beautiful beaches around such as La Marineda. The wind blows pretty hard there so it's a good spot for surf.
It's a nice and relaxing beach, big enough.
Surrounded by rocks and green hills, this beach it's a great place for you to take pictures.
Sunsets here are amazing.
I recommend it if you visit Isola Rosa and it's beaches! Good food at affordable prices. You must try the pizza, ohh the pizza was delicious!! And the ice cream! Try the figue ice cream! Enjoy!! 😋

Worth a visit if in the area. Allow 2hrs for the visit. Park your car at the car park by the main road and walk the remainder of the way up the single track road. Not expensive entry and the site is well kept and clean. Would definitely recommend.
Merlin Kraft — Google review
This archeological monument is run by two lovely women. The entrance is charged 3€ for adults and 1,5€ for kids. It's worth it, though. The landscape is beautiful and the view is as well. Nuraghe majori itself is an interesting building of Sardinian architecture. In the area are toilets and a little souvenir shop. They give you a paper guide in various languages (even in Czech). From the parking it's a 5 min walk.

Worth a quick visit, 5 min walk from the parking lot, 10 min to explore the nuraghe, 10 min to take a walk around it and 5 min back to the car. Don't forget to take the flashlight for the bats (a must see for children) when buying the tickets.

Museo etnografico Galluras "la casa della Femina Agabbadora"
The Museo etnografico Galluras, also known as "il museo della Femina Agabbadora," is a fantastic opportunity to delve into the history and culture of Sardinia. The museum provides insight into the local traditions and beliefs, particularly those surrounding the figure of the Femina Agabbadora. This experience offers a unique perspective on both Sardinian culture and the human psyche, making it highly recommended for anyone interested in anthropology or history.
Excellent museum if you enjoy off the beaten track things ! Very authentic and approachable… You do need to contact in advanced though ! Worth it.

(Translated by Google) To say it's inspiring is an understatement. This ethnographic museum shows, with an uncommon wealth of details, the uses, habits and lifestyle of a community that tells the roots of a part of Sardinian history and beyond, as within it we go to deeply intertwine the historical evolution of our country. In addition to the very interesting focus on the Accabadora female, aided by finds that not only make the narrative more alive, but which leave room for a reflection on the mentality of a population, which in some respects seems to be a forerunner of still extremely current questions on the end of life, we then find objects of enormous interest for the reconstruction and immersion in what was the life of this community. Absolutely worth visiting.
(Original)
Dire stimolante è dire poco. Questo museo etnografico mostra, con una dovizia di particolari non comune, gli usi, le abitudini e lo stile di vita di una comunità che racconta le radici di una parte della storia sarda e non solo, in quanto all'interno di essa si va a intrecciare profondamente l'evoluzione storica del nostro paese. Oltre all'interessantissimo focus sulla femmina Accabadora, coadiuvato da reperti che non solo rendono la narrazione più viva, ma che lasciano spazio ad una riflessione sulla mentalità di una popolazione, che sotto alcuni aspetti pare essere precorritrice di domande ancora estremamente attutali sul fine vita, troviamo poi oggetti di enorme interesse per la ricostruzione e l'immersione in quella che fu la vita di questa comunità. Assolutamente da visitare.

(Translated by Google) A very suggestive museum, full of Gallura traditions. The building was an old two-storey carabinieri barracks with many objects and testimonies from the 1st and 2nd World War. The room of the Femina Agabbadora is truly beautiful with many objects and clothes from the times. The museum tour guide was very kind and detailed. At the end of the journey you can leave signatures and comments on this beautiful experience. We highly recommend this visit.
(Original)
Un museo molto suggestivo , carico delle tradizioni galluresi . Il caseggiato era una vecchia caserma dei carabinieri a due piani con tantissimi oggetti e testimonianze della 1 e2 guerra mondiale. La stanza della Femina Agabbadora è veramente bella con tanti oggettini e abiti dei tempi. La guida turistica del museo è stata gentilissima e dettagliata. A fine percorso si possono lasciare firme e commenti su questa bella esperienza . Consigliamo vivamente questa visita.

The beach looked nothing like the pictures, and it was a very sunny day. We ended up going to Rena Bianca which was much nicer. The water was dark and the waves were so strong no one was swimming. The view is nice but not a great place to go swimming that day as the waves made it dangerous.

Capo Testa is a picturesque coastal area in the northernmost point of Sardinia. It offers visitors stunning views of the sea and rocky hiking trails, as well as coves with small sandy beaches to explore. The peninsula is known for its weather-carved granite boulders that resemble sculptures by Henry Moore and a sturdy lighthouse that overlooks the blue waters towards Corsica.
Lovely panoramic view and setting, beautifull spos and bars. Parking tricky (need to come very early) be careful parking attendants are red hot there.

Peter Jackson — Google review
Capo Testa is great for a walk to discover the rock formations sculpted by the wind. But it is also great for a swim. There are two sides, on one side a long strip of sand and the other a couple of hidden small creeks with some sand. We chose the later for its peaceful nature and crystal clear water.
Parking could be a big issue during the high season. While you come on the road and see some cars, park, don’t go further thinking you will find something. You won’t.
Jean-Philippe Cyr — Google review
This is the most beautiful and interesting coast in Sardegna. Crystal clear water, some fish, strange rock formations and several path around.
Be careful with the parking! If you manage to find a place, where the whole car is beyond the white line, you are lucky, you can park for free. If a part of your car crosses the white line, you will pay a nice fine,so better choice to find a blue line slot and pay at a machine...
one of the most beautiful sunset views on costa smeralda. climb the rocks for some spectacular visuals. bring a pizza and some wine and something soft to sit on so that you can spend as much time as you want there. met some locals who treated us to their home grown grape tomatoes.

When I arrived at Olbia and I checked in my first question was
What place should I visit If I have only 3 days here?
The answer was: If you have a car you should visit Capo Testa
Capo Testa is located at the north of Olbia.
It is the closest point to Corsica and you can see it’s coast
This place (Capo Testa) is not only beautiful for being nearest to Corsica but also for the phenomenal small beaches with
Yellow sand, rocks and blue and crystalline water
You can find several beautiful beaches between Capo Testa and Santa Taresa di Galluro where you can choose either small beaches, Bahia’s and beaches a little bigger
If you are thinking in visiting Cerdeña staying in Olbia, you must visit Capo Testa (it’s far away 60 kms from Olbia)

Liscia Ruja beach is located between two picturesque villages and is renowned as one of the top beaches in Costa Smeralda. It boasts incredibly soft sand and offers a range of water sports for visitors to enjoy. The area also features delightful dining options with aromatic flavors, all set against the backdrop of the stunning blue sea, making it a truly rewarding destination for beach lovers.
Spiaggia Poltu Di Li Cogghj is a stunning beach located in a small bay with crystal clear, blue water and serene views. It is known for its fine sand and rock formations that divide the waters into shades of aquamarine to cobalt blue, making it perfect for snorkeling. This beautiful spot is not easy to access but offers an ideal setting surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation.
Great beach, lovely crystal clear water, very clean. There's a parking lot and it's reasonably priced (2.5 euros per hour, I think?), and there are a lot of places available. The access to the beach is a bit tricky, there are no steps, just rocks, sand and you have to be a bit careful when going down to the beach or returning to your car. There are sunbeds and umbrellas available to rent, and we advise you to, because it can get pretty hot here in the summer and the UV rays get really strong as well. We payed 60 euros for 2 persons, for the whole day.
There's also a bar that sells sandwiches, ice-creams, beverages, etc., and the prices are also reasonable.
The sea is amazing, there are plenty of fish to watch and you are certain to have a good time here!

Nice beach, but pretty crowded in high season. Sand is white, water is pristine. There is a bar close to the the beach. All in all a very nice but over crowded beach. We parked close to the beach - paid 3 bucks a hour an walked 10 minutes to the beach. Ok

Spiaggia del Principe is a beautiful beach located ion the costa smeralda. It was the favorite beach of Aga Khan. It is known for its white sand, clear waters, and pine trees. The beach is relatively small and secluded, making it a popular choice for those looking for a quiet and relaxing beach experience.
The water at Spiaggia del Principe is crystal clear and shallow, making it ideal for swimming. There are also a few rocks and reefs in the water, which are home to a variety of marine life.
The beach is backed by pine trees, which provide shade and shelter from the sun. There is also a small beach bar where you can buy food and drinks.
The only downside to Spiaggia del Principe is that it can get crowded, especially in the summer months.
Overall, Spiaggia del Principe is a beautiful and serene beach that is perfect for a relaxing day at the beach. Here are some pros and cons of the beach:
Pros:
White sand
Clear waters
Secluded location
Pine trees
Ideal for swimming
Small beach bar
Cons:
Crowded in the summer
Steep walk down to the beach
Parking might be challenging
No other amenities
À lot of yachts in the bay
Overall, I would recommend Spiaggia del Principe to those looking for a beautiful and relaxing beach experience.

This beach is great..great water, great nature, but if you have children it is quite difficult to reach. You need to arrive by car to the parking and then walk down the cliff for about 1 km. The small walking path is very narrow and full of rocks...going to the beach generally with fliflop it is very easy to place wrongly a foot and fall down. Possible with small children in strollers. There is no bar/restaurant or other facilities. Just nature.

Max Tremain — Google review
It is small beach that gets very busy. You must use the car park since the roads around are a tow/ticket zone but the car parks fill up early on busy days and this restricts the visitor numbers. We visited on a day that followed 2 windy days and the sea was a milky white colour because the sand had been stirred up. But the water was warm and there are some snorkelling opportunities. A better beach is Grand Pevero beach not far away.
Established in 1996, Parco Nazionale dell'Arcipelago di La Maddalena is a marine park comprising seven main islands and several smaller granite islets located off the northeastern coast of Sardinia. The archipelago's natural sculptures have been shaped by the prevailing maestrale wind over centuries.

Located in south Corsica, Plage de Roccapina is a stunning beach that attracts fortunate visitors with its perfect white sand and picturesque surroundings. The beach is like a stage at the base of the surrounding mountains, where dense vegetation cascades down the green hillsides. Golden glints of sunlight dance on the rocks during the day, creating a breathtaking view. One of the highlights is a lion-shaped rock formation that serves as an impressive backdrop to this remarkable beach.
Be careful, you need to take a gravel road to go next to this beautiful beach. Alternatively one can park the car in the main street and walk to the beach for about 30 minutes. The water is crystal clear. A true beautiful beach. There's nothing around, don't forget to bring your own drinks and food.

The beach is indeed amazing, it was crowded when we arrived and wow, if you’re in a car with a chassis low to the ground and more than 2 travelers GOOD LUCK driving down from the main road T40.
We were 2 in a standard vehicle but we followed a long line of cars with passengers that had to get out of the car at every “bump”.
I’m amazed that roads like this even exist without a warning sign but they in fact do so know before you go, the voyage down and back up IS A SAFARI, you’re best off in an SUV or a 4x4.
The people who choose to walk down from the main parking lot have a 30-45 minute hike dodging cars that are making their way up and down. It’s definitely not the most ideal way to end a day at the beach.
That being said, amazing views, nicer voyage for those traveling by yacht or catamaran I imagine 😉
Sydney Martinie — Google review
This is a really beautiful beach. It’s not the biggest and you can only reach it down a terrible potholed track but it’s perfect if you like undeveloped beaches. Soft white sand and a crystal clear turquoise sea with small waves. There are several places to park. Some better than others. It’s very busy during the July and August period but it’s more peaceful in the off peak months. And of course there is the Roccapina lion rock overlooking the bay.

The Escalier du Roy d'Aragon is a unique tourist attraction in Bonifacio, featuring a steep and narrow rock staircase that leads down to the sea. Accessible only from the top, this impressive staircase boasts 187 steep steps that were carved by Aragonese troops during the siege of 1420. Visitors can enjoy breathtaking water and boat views as they descend the stairs. The area also offers great spots for taking pictures and some wonderful small restaurants.

Superb place. Great view and some wonderful small restaurants. You can walk around for a huge stretch along the mountain top next to the sea.

At first u might think why the helmet? But then u get to the stairs.. it is really steep an can be dangerous if u are out of shape! It is worthwhile! Once u get down the views are amazing, but then u have to climb it back up, which is the hard part!

The view is beautiful. Over the sea and ships as well as from the sea over the stairs and city.

Going down those stairs was a bit scary, and I did nearly get an asthma attack but hey the view is worth it!
There is a nice breeze by the sea, and the view is beautiful!
Careful not to slip!

So. There were A LOT of steep steps which would have been acceptable if they had actually led to the famed well. But unfortunately, the end part of the cliff walk was fenced off. Complete waist of 10 euros and I had to have a sit down afterwards.
John Gocher — Google review
Great experience descending the stairs and a great view. You should be aware, however, that although there are only 187 steps, many of the steps are as high as two steps usually are. Especially older people or anyone who is not in good shape should consider going down the steps, especially in the hot months.

Beautiful, but very heavy traffic. If going go either very early or after 4pm. It doesn't take more than a few hours to walk around and see everything

A must for a visit of Bonifacio. Worst the steep steps decent and ascent. But pls wear proper shoes (no Havaiinas, or loose sandals). Fair pricing for adults and kids below 6 are free of charge. The visit fit perfectly in a day visit of Bonifacio. Enjoy!

Such a nice experience! Going down those stairs was really nice and scary at the same time time as there was some water on the stairs. The view is super nice, from the top and also when you reach down. They open at 10, I went there I the morning and was not crowded. I enjoyed taking a lot of pictures

Well worth the five euros they charge to go down. You have to put on a hardhat as there are some low hanging rocks above your head most of the way. Very steep descent so you better be prepared to go back up! There are 188 steps not all of them are equal in size some of them are pretty steep. Once you get down to the bottom there are some amazing views of the cliffs and the rocks ahead. The water is gorgeous and it’s such a serene view. The path is narrow but it’s definitely worth the trip.

A totally unique experience to go down the calanque staircase to get to a point to walk along the side of the Calanques to see the turquoise sea. Definitely worth the 5€ and to go early when it opens to avoid passing many others participating in the same experience.

Quite high 180 steps to climb. 2,50 euro entrance. Nice view indeed. Don’t do this in hot summer if you’re not in normal shape or have bad knees

Careful and affectionate management, made with passion and with lots of advice on where to go to sea by bike on foot, where and what to eat. Then you discover for yourself a territory with extraordinary landscapes and history.

Bonifacio and also the whole south of Corsica are to be seen and experienced in every way. We chose the right place to do it because our holiday in the apartment "Faro di Capo Testa" in the fantastic Bonifacio was just as we wished.
The apartment is a tastefully decorated jewel in an extraordinary location in the old downtown of Bonifacio and very well located to reach the key points, restaurants and shops of the town. Although the streets are always full of days and nights, the apartment is very quiet and we really got a good rest each day.
A small balcony, overlooking a small square, invites you to have an aperitif in the open air watching the people passing by and admiring the white cliffs located exactly in front of the apartment. The landscape from this point is simply breathtaking and one the best of the town.
The cleanliness of the apartment deserves a good 10.
Meticulous in every detail detail, Federica has managed to make our stay in Bonifacio a really pleasant and unforgettable experience. She was always very professional and helpful in her advices both before and during our stay.
Highly recommended with all 5 * * * *

Bonifacio ma anche tutto il sud della Corsica sono da vedere e da vivere in tutti i sensi. Noi abbiamo scelto il posto giusto per farlo perché le nostre vacanze presso l'appartamento "Faro di Capo testa" nella fantastica Bonifacio sono state proprio come le volevamo.
L’appartamento è un piccolo gioiello arredato con buon gusto in una posizione straordinaria di Bonifacio e comoda a tutti i servizi di Bonifacio come ristoranti e negozi. Anche se le strade sono sempre affollate di giorni e di sera, l'appartamento è veramente silenzioso.
Un balconcino, che si affaccia su una piazzetta, invita a prendere un aperitivo all'aperto guardando la gente che passa e ammirando le falesie bianche. Il passaggio da questo punto è mozzafiato e uno dei più belli della città.
Merita un bel 10 la pulizia dell'appartamento.
Attenta ad ogni dettaglio, Federica ha saputo rendere il nostro soggiorno a Bonifacio una esperienza veramente piacevole ed indimenticabile.

(Translated by Google) At the end of July we stayed in Bonifacio for a week in the beautiful apartment 'Aifari'.
We were warmly welcomed by the host Federica, who gave us all the useful information regarding the available facilities: wifi, washing machine, dishwasher, TV, air conditioning, etc.
The apartment, located in the most beautiful town in Corsica for us, is equipped with everything.
It has excellent air conditioning and the authentic French shutters protect well from the sun.
The location in the upper town of Bonifacio is sublime with views of the chalk cliffs, terraces, restaurants, authentic gems galore.
Next to the apartment is the Bastion along which a beautiful promenade leads to the port. Fortunately, to go up you can use the tourist train, which was easy for us.
We had a great week in Bonifacio and Federica will definitely see us again!!

Cala Coticcio, a small sandy beach nestled in a deep cove surrounded by rugged cliffs, is now a well-known destination in the Maddalena Archipelago. In recent years, due to its growing popularity, special rules have been implemented to preserve the area's natural beauty. A permit and local guide are required for access to the beach and surrounding area.
Absolutely stunning beach - cozy sand bay surrounded by stone, some of the stone low peaks usable for jumping into the water. Quite busy by the end of August, lot of lingering boats and people enjoying the beauty and remoteness of the place. One of the nicest beaches in Sardinia.
Daniel ??astn? — Google review
🏝️Paradise beach , truly stunning (specially in low season when at some point we were just in 4). Once you arrive to the 1st beach, continue for a bit more cross the rocks on the left side; you will be rewarded with an even better little Cala only accessible otherwise by boat/swimming.
🅿️ We left the car parked on one side of the road , at the beginning walk. Easy to find following google maps.
👟The walk from the road is approx 1.65km / 35-40min. It is moderate hike with many up & down hills. It can feel tougher with the heat. Strongly recommend to bring comfortable shoes & enough water.
⛱️ If possible bring an umbrella to cover from the sun as there is not much shadow in the calas. Also it’s a good spot for 🤿
♻️ As there is no trash in the beach /parking please bring back with you all of it to ensure we keep clean the natural park.

PLEASE ASK BEFORE ENTERING HERE!
You need a local guide. Water and shoes. We as locals we have the privilege to walk but if you’re a tourist think again before going to Cala Coticcio.
The best time is spring. I would avoid summer time…too hot and crowded with boats.
Breathtaking trail! The path is prohibited but we did it anyway. Medium/hard difficult!
Take really care of the plants and nature. The Cala is the most beautiful in the world. And the amount of flowers at this time are of an imaginable importance..all protected.

Reservation only, list of guides on the La Maddelena parks website. We thought this was an unnecessary hassle at first, but once we started we quickly understood the reasons. We had Giuliano as a guide, extremely knowledgeable of the area, plant and animal life, good natured & humorous. The trail is about 40-45 minute hike, steep in sections, some loose rock and very hot with no shade. When you get to the beach it takes your breath away, turquoise blue water and small fine sandy area and easy access, some juniper bushes scattered around the bay under rocks for shade, you can find a shady spot. Due to previous years of no regulation, the beach could not handle the amount of traffic (500 people in some days). A place this beautiful needs protection so I am glad to see the restrictions, and a €25 per person for a guide is well worth it. We biked to the parking spot, give yourself 1/1.25 hours from La Maddelena (some hills on the way up !). Met our guide there at 9am, he let us stay for 3 hours which went quickly. Bring a bite to eat and lots of water. You can stop for beers on the way down. One of the most beautiful beaches I've ever been to. Thank you Giuliano !

Top memories we will always remember
Visited May 2023 and there was just one other couple on the beach at 11am. It filled up slowly around 12 with more groups
Ad Feu — Google review
The only reason why one star is that we were not able to even get to it. On the side by the road you will see national park rengers who will stop you if you go by foot. Reason is that the way to the beach is protected area and you are not allowed to go there without a guide. Would be nice if I would know this before on sites or other places. If you go with a boat I think its fine. Anyway, there is another really beautiful beach Napoletana 30-40 minutes walking from the main road (bring shoes) if you don’t know where to go from there.
Benjamin K — Google review
Really beautiful beach well worth the approx 45min trek there (definitely wear proper shoes!) - wouldn’t do it with small children as there are some steep climbs included. At the entrance at the street there is a sign stating that you are only allowed to go on the hike if you’re with a guide as it’s a protected area. I didn’t know this beforehand and really wanted to go so went anyway. Around 2:30pm a guide came to the beach with his group of about 6-8 people shouting at everyone there (the little beach was packed with people who hiked there and came by boat) that we weren’t allowed to be there and no towels or other stuff was allowed on the sand. We had to put everything on the rocks around us. It wasn’t clear whether he wanted us to leave so I stayed a bit longer.
I do get that the beach needs to be protected but the guide really destroyed the experience for me a little bit. He was just unnecessarily aggressive and kept bossing people around - except for the people on his tour who were allowed to put their towels on the beach for example. It felt like a show just so these people wouldn’t feel ripped off for paying for something other people got for free.
Lara — Google review
Really beautiful beach, but a tough trip to get there. We were quite unprepared as there wasn't much information, so I'll share some here. The entire hike is in the sun, so bring enough water! We were sweating like crazy and there is a lot of climbing and descending. There are some tough spots where you will have to descend sitting, so make sure you have your hands free and aren't heavy loaded. You should wear sneakers of some sort, because there is someone checking if you do at the beginning of the trial. She won't allow you to do the trial if you wear flip flops, and with good reason. The beach consists of two beautiful little beaches divided by rocks and the water is delightful to swim in after the hike. As the lady said, the trial is recommended for experienced hikers, and they will take about 45 min to go to the beach and another 45 to return.

Filitosa, an important prehistoric site in Corsica located 20km north of Propriano, showcases remarkable granite menhirs that were erected up to 6000 years ago. Some of these standing stones were re-carved during the Bronze Age, about 2500 years later, depicting intricate faces and weaponry. These unique carvings seem to honor specific individuals. The site offers an hour-long exploration through open fields and hillsides that contain remnants of ancient enclosures.
Great place to visit, is really interesting and plenty to read. You can explore and take your time. The access is not complicated and you have parking and a little brasserie on the side to eat. I was impressed for the olive tree! The path is fairly well indicated however it could be improved a bit. The museum at the end is plenty of historic information.
Javier F U — Google review
Parc with ancient Filitosa statues spread over a few hectares. There is at the entrance a modern building with interesting historical artifacts and a shop. The entrance fee was rather high for what is there to see, on the other hand it’s a quite unique site which should be seen.

Nice archeological center, as it presents the history of Corsica. (The museum at the end d plains nicely). The site itself is a bit too basic, lacking an explanation (unless you purchase the guide which we didn't do as we already spent 9€ eaxh, for the entrance) that could have been included (the qr code give you access ti only very little and poorly translated information)
Veronica De Bernardi — Google review
Absolutely beautiful! I enjoyed every moment of the visit! I met wonderful people who feel responsible to save and share the ancient history and site. Walking there is simply so peaceful that I hardly wanted to leave while I learnt about history and the dedication of the family owning the site.

They do have a restaurant on site as well. The tour is audio guided via QR code.
Goodyear — Google review
Worth visiting for the anthropomorphic menhirs but otherwise compared to sites in say Brittany it is slightly underwhelming. Most of the museum was closed off when we visited with no explanation when it would open. The very good €2 guide guide leaflet is worth spending a few moments scanning before you start exploring. The most important menhir, Filitosa V, is now a replica but there is no mention of where the original now is.

There are some interesting stones but for sure this "site" can be improved. They simply can add some flower gardens, some productive olive trees, etc

After that, the price they charge for demi pension and without are not well calculated... the first night with Demi pension it’s 30€ per person, 2nd night 42,5€, 3rd night 40€... they should watch out this kind of things, it’s ridiculous!

The popular Plage de Santa Giulia in Porto-Vecchio, a bay on the south coast of Corsica, is surrounded by clear, shallow water and beachside restaurants. The pier offers fishing opportunities.
One of the best beaches in Corsica! There are good bars and restaurants, water is crystal clear. One can walk around and explore nice and more quiet places around.

We expected more since we visited palombaggia. Santa Giulia is long but narrow beach so we hardly found our spot. We were located in front of some mobile homes and it was really bad smell I guess from the toilettes. The water was clear and shallow, so is perfect for small kids. But a lot of grass in the water and on the beach. Parking lot is 5min away walking and it costs us 5€ per whole day.

Very beautiful beach in the southeast of Corsica. Partly white sand and turquoise water. The beach is very long and unfortunately also very busy. Nevertheless beautiful. If you are looking for a quieter place to sunbathe, you should walk down the beach to the end, even further than the last hotel-restaurant. In front of the the Hotel there is also a small free parking lot, next to a small lake, but there you have to be a bit lucky, because the other parking lots cost 15 € per day. If you want to go out for a meal, you should know that the beach is mainly home to high-priced eateries. Exception is a kind of fast food restaurant, but that is unfortunately at the other end of the beach.

An amazing beach with clear water for the kids to play all day. There are two bars where you can easily get all the necessary food and drinks, so if you are a person who can stay in one place for the whole day, this beach offers everything. For the first 50 meters the water is very shallow, again amazing for little kids. They can walk in and out (under your watchful eye of course) all day. The water was also not cold. I recommend at least a couple of hours to visit, but it could get crowded.

Water is shallow and clear, sand is white. Bay is beautiful and the ship can’t come close. So why just 3 out of 5?
The grade is lowered by the August crowd, but hey, this is the time i am here. It is super busy.
There’s also quite a bit of seaweeds that reduce the amount of available beach. They also smell quite a lot. If you’re going in the paid part of it, just disregard this, they keep it pretty clean and they look gorgeous.
Another minus is the parking, the closest to the beach costs 20€!!! TWENTY!!!
There are cheaper options with nice pals (search for the 5€ one on google map, there’s a 5’ walk on a nice path).
Overall, there are FAR better options. Balistra, petit Sperone, Stagnolu and even Rondinara.

The beach definitely has a potential. However, it is a victim of its own popularity. In the high season it is very busy. Additionally, the beach is not cleaned of decaying sea weeds making it a very unpleasantness place to lay your towel on. The prices in the surrounding bars and restaurants resemble those found in Switzerland rather than in France. Perhaps the biggest nuisance is the noise pollution. The beach is used to rent all kind of watercraft that emit constant noise and exhaust fumes, polluting this otherwise beautiful place even more. You will do better going somewhere else, unless you enjoy crowds, high prices, dead seewed and noise.

Ridiculously packed and honestly expected a lot more. I think the beach is victim to its popularity as the beach was quite dirty with cigarette butts and random trash , and this was early in the morning. Also on the left hand side it’s just a port with all the boats so doesn’t feel great to be swimming so close to that. Views are very nice and water quite warm.
Getting in and out is a complete nightmare as the roads are extremely narrow and two cards barely fits. Arrive as early as possible and leave between 2-330pm
Nick Verschelde — Google review
One of the most beautiful beaches close to Porto-Vecchio. It's definitely a must-see when you're in the area.
After 11 am can get quite crowded, but that's something normal.
Unfortunately, some people act like they are at their house throwing away rubbish like bottle caps. You have to be careful while walking on the sand.
Tamaricciu is a beachfront eatery located near Porto Vecchio that offers a diverse menu featuring pizza, lobster, fish, cocktails, and tapas. Situated on Tamaricciu beach, this spot also provides deckchair rentals for added comfort. The sandy shoreline is adorned with rocks both on the land and in the crystal-clear turquoise water, enhancing its natural beauty.
Good service all around. Nice beach. The restaurant has surprisingly good and unique food.

Great location , delicious food , great services. Unfortunately toilets looks like from a camping with no toilet seat. Such a shame after such a good meal. We had a delicious tartare de tuna and a great Baba Grume

Fabulous seafood linguine and bottle of white overlooking the beautiful beach. It is quite pricey but ticks a lot of boxes. Staff were friendly and spoke English when realising our french was nigh on unintelligible.

Mediocre food at best, incredibly rude personale. Not sure if it’s because we were not French or not but very unpleasant experience overall. The beach chairs are comfortable and the beach is obviously beautiful but I would strongly encourage anyone to pick a different beach lounge/restaurant as not only none deserves to be treated the way we got but also the price is really unreasonable for what you get (50 euros per chair but they try to charge you 80). There are plenty better options just a few steps away.

But 2 cappucino and a sparkling water for €17,50? This is too much.

they only want to serve their own population and are not hospitable to tourists. felt so sorry as we have been coming to corsica for so many years and to be treated like this was not right. The staff could communicate a bit friendly. I would definitely recommend Playa Baggio. However, not this restaurant. untrained staff who do not know how to communicate

The food is absolutely fantastic, beautifully-presented and very tasteful. We ate there on several occasions while visiting Corsica and always chose the dish of the day and one from the menu. Don't miss out on the desserts as those are very good too! All the compliments to the chef! To accompany your food you can choose from a great selection of wine or just order a cocktail that will be carefully prepared for you. The staff is super professional and kind, always attentive and very helpful. We will definitely come back to this little paradise. Thank you Tamaricciu Team, you are the best!
Palombaggia is a picturesque beach located near Porto-Vecchio, boasting stunning views of its white sandy shore and turquoise waters. This scenic coastal area is surrounded by evergreen trees, creating a serene and natural ambiance. Nearby, visitors can explore the charming town of Porto-Vecchio with its historic citadel and quaint streets. Palombaggia itself offers a lagoon-like bay with clear and crystal waters, perfect for swimming or simply admiring the beauty of nature.
Wonderful sand beach with convenient parking. Came at around 11 in the morning and it was not a problem to park car in the shade of pine trees. And parking is free! Beach itself goes alongside, walk further and it will not be crowded at all. Crystal clear and shallow water, stones to make insta pics, bars everything is there! The best beach for us visited in Corsica! Recommended!!!

Nice blue shallow water. Great for little kids. Lots of pine needles and other natural debris on the beach. On Sundays extremely crowded. Some jellyfish in the water.

This is, to me, the best beach in Corsica. The dand is white and thin, the water very clean and light blue. You can park very close to the beach if you get there early (before 10am) otherwise there are parking on the street and with a 10-15min walk (very easy) you get there anyway.
Around 11 till 5pm is a bit crowded but still there's plenty of space.

Very nice beach with very clear water. Good for snorkelling. Not that many different type of fish but enough to have fun.
Beach consists of white sand. Be aware of the sharp needles that fall from the trees.
Enough parking space along the road but also in the parking spots closer to the beach only a few meters walking and you are on the beach

Although the weather was very windy and not suitable for swimming, you can see that it is a great beach, with white sands and clear water. The space is not much, so maybe there are problems during high seasson.

A beautiful walk to the water. A very easy, flat walk suitable for all people of all ages and abilities (prams are totally fine to go here) We parked up at a big car park (free of charge) and did a loop which was approx 4 km.
Charlene Elliott — Google review
The spot that everyone comes to take a swim is very crowded which lost the tranquility of the place and the water was not as clear as the other part. HOWEVER!!! if you want to dodge that and enjoy the beauty of the your “private pool”, walk down a little bit more there are tons of small rivers that you can find. The water was pristine and the scenery was a WOW!!
Mai Chi Nguyen — Google review
Nice spot, a bit touristy, but we fully expected that. If you go with kids, there’s a nice adventure-park that is quite expensive but my lads had a lot of fun. We hiked only 20’ or so because the weather was not good, but I expect that the most beautiful spots were up the path.
mikyberra — Google review
if you love nature and hiking, don't miss this place. Basically there are several natural pools all along the river with crystal clear water that lures you to jump in. The water is cold as ice though, so taking a bath there requires some adrenaline. The are are some 10 of them and the upriver ones are the most beautiful, so I advise you not to give up half way and go all the way up. You can drive as there's a (dirt) road going uphill parallel to the river, or you can leave your car in the parking lot and walk the last 2 km or so to admire all the pools on foot. And a piece of advice : on the other side of the river, oposite to the road, there's a trail that follows the river bed, so if you're into hiking I advise you to go on that trail either when you go upriver or for the return journey, it's just wonderful.

Beautiful green and shady place where to have a nice swim. There is a little snack place but it was close when we went. Not recommended for people with limited mobility as one has to go down not much but is not a proper path, and once you are down there is just rocks. to get to the water. The road to get there is quite winding, in case get sick easily or if you are pregnant.
Rocío Alcaman — Google review
Great for hiking and swimming in rock pools.
Martin Cvilink — Google review
Had a nice hike through the rocks which i would recommend instead of taking the dirt road path.
The natural pools are pretty but very crowed. There was a spot (5 mins walk) that was wonderful with no one.
If you go all the way to the end of the path right where theres the restaurant, you will find everyone which is very crowed.
Since crowed, parking is a bit annoying bc you will go around for a while. At least parking is free.
Les Aiguilles De Bavella is a majestic and grandiose location nestled in the mountains of Bavella. It offers breathtaking views of the towering needles and is best visited early to avoid crowds. The area provides opportunities for a 5-hour round trip hike from Col de Bavella to explore its natural wonders, including the famous "trou de la bombe.
Very friendly, cozy, and nice! Great bread.

At 11am, we’ve ordered 2 cappuccinos at an almost empty restaurant. We were served two cups of warm milk with barely dissolved instant coffee or similar substance floating on top although they have an espresso machine. Upon politely asking whether our order was misunderstood, we were informed in no uncertain terms that “chez nous le cappuccino est comme ça”. Best avoided.

This was such a nice place - our first question was “do you accept credit card” as some very nearby places don’t or pretend they don’t accept CC but here the waiter/ owner was very clear: yes we do - the food itself was very tasty, the service was very friendly (almost ‘not-French’ if you get my point), and the location/ view is excellent - thank you “Aiguilles” team!

This place is excellent in a lot of regards.
They offer top quality meals, when "it was too late" for the other two restaurants nearby, the staff are excellent, very nice, the meals were all of a quite large portion and very tasty.
You can even get accommodation (with breakfast, lunch, dinner included) below in the basement on bunkbeds, they have showers, a small kitchen.
Overall, it was an excellent choice to rest here for the evening before continuing our journey on the GR20.

We were able to benefit more from the enlightened comments, the culture and the attention of the latter with whom we made 3 day hikes out of the 4 chosen.

The picnics are full of pure Corsican products. A delight ! Thanks again !

Wide sandy beach where unleashed dogs can run free, backed by Mediterranean scrubland.
We loved it here! We drove 4 hours in total round trip and enjoyed every moment here. Our dog had the best time of his life! Parking is free and there are paid showers to rinse the dogs as well! There is a shop if you want to buy dog toys or just even a parasol!
The 4 hour drive was so worth, we even went twice here!

This place in idea is a great one. A dog beach which is very rare I would say. However unless you pre-book 48 hours in advance you won’t get a place which we weren’t aware of at the time but that wouldn’t put us off going back again. The beach next to it is free and also you are allowed dogs on it as well so no drama.
The features like the showers for the people and dogs are €0.50 which is annoying but to fill your dog bowl up with fresh water is free.
The bar was also very helpful as well. Chilled drinks and also light lunches.
Peter S — Google review
A perfect place if you have a dog and want a relaxed day at the beach. You can either get a sunbed for 23 € per day or you bring your own stuff for free. It is not a playground for dogs. Some of them might play with each other, but it seems that is uncommon here. Our furry friend had plenty of fun at the beach and in the sea. It is really clean and you don't need to worry about broken glas or other sharp objects at the beach.

Amazing for dogs and owners! We greatly enjoyed our staying, easy parking, the staff is incredibly nice, the beach is lovely and very comfortable, dogs can go in water as they please, unleashed dogs are 95% of time supervised by their owners, there's access to fresh water for the bowls and showers are available for both owners and dogs, plus a vet is also on site for couple hours every day (!) There's a bar that also offers easy meals like cold pasta and salads, however one of the best features must be the track in the wood just behind the beach, a great resource for walks in the shade to cool off the heat and for dogs to go potty.
What to not expect : complete silence and peace, all dogs getting along, exceptionally trained dogs that won't interact or roam around you at times;
But I guarantee you that if you love dogs the atmosphere is quite fun and magic. Overall the experience is as great as the owners are behaved, we will be back! 😊🐕🐾

Awesome beach! Very clean and dog friendly. Many dogs, the area is comfortable, especially if you rent a deck chair and a beach umbrella. Two deck chairs plus an umbrella are rentable for a total of 25€. As we arrived at the late afternoon we received a discount of 5€. There are also week prices, the beach is open until 7p.m.

I'm very happy that we found this place and we came to San Vincenzo for the second time because of this dog beach.

Strada Provinciale della Principessa, 120U, 57027 San Vincenzo LI, Italy
CavallinoMatto is a forest amusement park that offers exciting rides and family-friendly attractions, as well as live shows, a pizzeria, and a bar. Children's access to the various rides is determined by their height - from 90 cm up to 130 cm. The park is well-maintained and safe, with plenty of shows for visitors to attend throughout the day. The entry fee is very reasonable.
This amusement park is an oasis of fun and excitement. Outstanding roller coasters, with the standout being "Freestyle". On a week day in July, there was remarkably low crowd levels, and almost no waiting. It's an especially great destination for big kids and can ride every attraction. Pre-ordered tickets are a bit cheaper.

Very good theme park for the little ones, it’s perfect for kids , but there are also few adults attractions . We also saw 2 shows, the magic one and the dinosaurs , and they were both great and entertaining. My kid and nephew, 5 and 6 years old loved it .

Really nice, not too big amusement park. Of course they don't have the big budget to theme everything, but they have a lot of attractions for ages 3 and up and it is very clean. The parking is for free, which is great and except for the really good themed Dinosaur water ride there were very little waiting times. We had a great day and highly recommend this for families.

Lovely theme park in Italy. So many different rides from age 5 to big kid like me (I'm 42 btw). Has a variety of different places to eat and grab an ice cream and an excellent picnic area, which is useful. Wasn't too crowded, which was a surprise being August but not an unwelcome one as it meant we didn't have to wait long to get on any of the rides. Would love to go again next time I am in Italy
Peter Brown — Google review
You pay a small one time entry (26€ if you pay in advance) and then can access all attractions as often as you want without paying extra and without waiting in lines.
Almost NO WAITING AT ALL, only at the jurassic river we had to wait around 30min.
All the attractions are really fun for both kids and adults. Throughout the day you have some shows you can attend to and also a 4D cinema playing a short movie.
You can easily spend the whole day here!
Big RECOMMEND!

THE WORST PIZZA SLICE OF MY LIFE
Sunday April 7. It is a nice park, small but well-kept if it weren't for the restaurant part, and the squat toilets are still in 2024. For 89 euros, a family of 3 deserves more than a frozen, industrial, slice of pizza ( 1 menu soft drink + pizza euro 7,50, for 3 people another 24 eur0) Certainly the worst of my life. Not even abroad have I eaten pizzas of such a low standard. And given that the centre has been open for decades, perhaps I wonder how much customer care there is if the toilets are still squat toilets with obvious inconveniences, especially if you have children. But we are in Italy, a seaside place, so shut up and pay.
Alberto Galli — Google review
We've spent the whole day in the park. Access to the attractions for the kids is determined via body height. Some are from 90 cm, 100, 110 and 130 cm. Lots of fun, for adults as well. The park seems to be well maintained and save. Many shows to attend. Entry fee is very reasonable.

(Translated by Google) Coastal with fairly flat rocks, it is located under an overpass, clean water, there are ladders, a nice swimming pool for entering and exiting the water. Parking spaces are few and along the state road, there is also a place near the cliff, precisely called Calafuria.
(Original)
Costiera di rocce abbastanza piatte, si trova sotto un cavalcavia, acqua pulita, sono presenti delle scalette, dtile piscina per entrare ed uscire dell'acqua. I parcheggi sono pochi e lungo la statale, presente anche un locale vicino alla scogliera, si chiama precisamente Calafuria.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful and evocative cliff, for experts and agile people, steep descents into the sea, for expert swimmers also bathing, worth knowing, among slippery rocks. Be very, very careful. Especially in rough seas
(Original)
Bella e suggestiva scogliera, per esperti e persone agili, discese a precipizio sul mare, per nuotatori esperti anche la balneazione , da conoscere, tra scogli scivolosi. Fare molta molta attenzione. Specie con mare mosso

(Translated by Google) HACKING! THEFT!
Wonderful place, beautiful beach, breathtaking rocks! Until the moment you get back to your car and notice that the car has been broken into and robbed! There are lots of broken glass and bags thrown into the ditches along the parking lots (an afterthought after you search for your own). The police do nothing (why would they?).
So stop and take a photo! But be careful!
Thank you Livorno! I won't come again!

FELTÖRÉS! LOPÁS!
Csodás hely, szép tengerpart, lélegzetelállító sziklák! Addig a pillanatig amíg vissza nem érsz a kocsidhoz és észreveszed, hogy feltörték a kocsit és kiraboltak! Az parkolók mentén rengeteg az üvegszilánk és az árkokba kidobott táska (utólagos észrevétel, miután a sajátod után kutatsz). A rendőrség nem tesz semmit (miért tenne?).
Szóval állj meg fotózz! De csak óvatosan!
Köszönöm Livorno! Nem jövök többet!
The Shrine of Lady Grace is a religious complex maintained by monks and featuring a revered Madonna image. The grounds are peaceful and have beautiful views of the Livorno Hills. The museum features the history of miracles that have occurred here.
Most impressive location with great view and many tokens of Catholic devotion. The church is located on top of a hill with a great view and inside you find a huge collection (over 12.000!) of tokens.
Even if the religious part is not your thing, it's still worth a visit for the great view and the short trip by cableway.

A good sight to burn some extra calories while walking up to it

Very moved by as well as interested in the folk art of the ex voto in the sanctuary - and the pharmacy selling bio products (tisanes, sweets, shampoo etc) is very good. Definitely worth a visit - especially if you combine it with a gastronomic pilgrimage to the fabulous Osteria fonte del penitente nearby (not the ones in the square in front of the sanctuary which are really grim)

My military family lived in Livorno for several years and we frequently frequented this beautiful Sanctuary of the ‘Madonna di Montenero’ while we were all very young . As Catholics, My brother and I made our 1STHoly Communion there. It is a miraculous Sanctuary of Our Lady of Graces. So unbelievable, so unforgettable, so NEEDED in these times of turmoil. It is up on a mountain overlooking the beautiful Naval Port of the ancient City of Livorno. 👍😄🏆🌹🍃

A very beautiful historical place with miracles attributed to our Lady! A host for many pilgrims. I loved it

A magical, special place. Went to mass - it was packed with a million kids, wonderfully serene. Afterwards, a beautiful courtyard with shops offering religious merchandise, and a gallery of gratitude notes from those who prayed here. Special reverence towards St John Paul II. Next doir: amazing restaurant "Montallegro" with wonderful, authentic food and amazing views and a lush garden.

This is one of the stops when doing the open top bus tour. The price includes a ticket for the furnicular - time it right to get the next bus back, although when we were there he did wait for any latecomers.
Well worth a stop for the views and wander round. Maybe just enough time for a coffee!

We arrived there after checking the opening times on the official website and after driving 1h from where our accomodation was. We struggled to park as there is NO parking in the area and we had a massive SUV (very bad idea in Italy)....after we struggled for 15 mins to find a place we went to the monastery and entered. 30 seconds later a very aggressive and rude man started to shout at us in Italian and literally threw us out with no explanation.
We stopped at the restaurant nearby for a coffee and the lovely ladies explained the monastery is closed for an hour or two for lunch. All in all a terrible expereince, waste of money and time and I would not recommend the place as it is nothing to see or do...besides being bullied that is.
Visitors to the Terrazza Mascagni in Livorno can enjoy panoramic views of the coastline and cityscape from its elevated terrace. The deck is named for Pietro Mascagni, a composer who was born in Livorno.
Beautiful! The chequered tiles give it a beautiful look and you see amazing surroundings nearby.
One can also go close to the sea and find many beautiful corals, sea grass, tiny colorful fishes and crabs. I attached photos.

Go just for a walk down and to enjoy the views(panoramic view). But far out of the town for anything else. Nothing really near by. Go but don't make it a must do list.

Beautiful seaside terrace. The tile work is very impressive. Sunsets here are one of a kind.

It's OK for a walk down and to enjoy the views. Bit far out fo the town for anything else. Nothing really near by. Go but don't make it a must do list. Some public toilets near by you'd be helpfull

Very clean and bright looking promenade close to Livorno Harbour.

A lovely open air space sandwiched by the sea and the city. The warmly-coloured chequered marble floor, the tall palm trees and the grand bandstand in the centre made it an ideal place for sitting, strolling, jogging, running and cycling.
Feel a bit like the LA's Santa Monica sidewalk but without the sandy beach!!

While visiting Pisa we took the train to Livorno for the afternoon. A bus from the station brought us to the Terrazza Mascagni. It is a lovely walk along chequered tiles surrounded by a waist high wall, which gave beautiful views over the Ligurian sea. There are benches where you can sit and rest / enjoy the views. While there was a cafe nearby the restaurants were all closed by 2.30 / 3pm so make sure you eat before you visit. I would also recommend when buying bus tickets that you buy return tickets as well as it is difficult to find anywhere that sells them.

This area (contrary to other reviews) is NOT well maintained at all.
Haven’t been here for a few years, but it looks like material choice was wrong for the balustrades… appears that saltwater has soaked into the concrete and corroded the reinforcing bars - shattering many of the top stones.
Now looks a real mess… 🤦♂️
Give this a miss - just not worth the walk from town, unless using one of the private beach front facilities nearby.

The views of the city from here are amazing. Plus it's a Great place to park and walk into the city from, which we did. Parking fees were reasonable. They also have a bus stop there as well. It can get very busy so be aware of that. We came just after a rain storm and found parking easily, but when we returned after our visit it was very crowded. Wonderful place either way!

Beautiful view and smell of Mediterranean Sea. It was a nice walk and paid park lot was right next to the aquarium.
