Our Corsican charter itinerary begins in Bastia, the old Genoese capital. After exploring the port town, you can take a glorious cruise around Cap Corse, with its amazing cliffs and rock formations. End this stunning day in the protected and chic port of Saint-Florent. This port's main feature is the fact that it sits at the heart of the village, at the bottom of the citadel, offering the opportunity to stroll leisurely along the quays, perfect for enjoying a drop of wine and some antipasti.


Day 2 - Saint-Florent to Calvi

Day two takes us across the north coast of Corsica, past L'ille-Rousse and over to the delightful port of Calvi, known for its crescent bay and sandy beaches. Calvi has a beautiful old citadel, long ramparts and a quaint marina below, perfect for a stop for a caffè at a local shop after the cruise. If you want to explore, the chapel of Notre-Dame de la Serra rests on a hill a short distance inland, which offers sweeping views of the ocean.
