- South Corsica 8 days
Alone, as a couple, with family or friends, one cabin or the whole boat.
Southern Corsica is fully revealed from the sea, at the peaceful pace of navigation. An intimate cruise, far from congested roads and crowded beaches, to explore hidden coves, fine sandy beaches, steep cliffs, and wild islets bathed in crystal-clear waters.
An exceptional itinerary combining nature and heritage: majestic Bonifacio, the Lavezzi National Park, a listed nature reserve, Roccapina Bay watched over by its stone lion, the tranquil anchorages of Campomoro, the colorful facades of Ajaccio... A mountain set against the Mediterranean, Corsica is a prime destination for those dreaming of a seaside escape, without unpacking or changing accommodations, just as the waves flow, aboard a large catamaran.
Boarding your catamaran in Ajaccio from 6pm, installation in your cabins.
Welcome cocktail.
Dinner and overnight at anchor.
Departure for Cacalu, also known as Anse de Cacao, a small bay north of Cap Muro. With its sumptuous seabed, it's an ideal stopover for swimming among the rocks. Then sail to Cala Di Conca, a small cove far from civilization, surrounded by magnificent wild vegetation, or to Scoglio Lungho, a rock resembling the Lavezzi Islands, where you'll enjoy pleasant moments of relaxation.
Dinner and overnight at anchor
Cala di Conca or Scoglio Lungo - Roccapina - Fazziolu Islands
Departure for Roccapina. This walk takes you through a chaos of pink granite above the sea, between Sartène and Bonifacio.
You'll discover its unique beach, guarded by the Lion de Roccapina (a rock resembling a lion), and dive into its turquoise water, lined with rocks and scrub. In the late afternoon, sail to the Fazziolu Islands or Paragnanu to spend the evening.
Dinner and overnight at anchor.
Departure for a panoramic tour of the Lavezzi Islands, located in the Strait of Bonifacio between Corsica and Sardinia. This multitude of granite islets, sometimes surrounded by turquoise blue coves, is one of the most beautiful sites in the Mediterranean. Highly preserved, anchoring is prohibited in order to protect the Posidonia seagrass beds. You will enjoy an exceptional view of this archipelago as you sail gently around the islets.
You will then reach the very chic island of Cavallo, Jean Castel's stronghold in the 1970s, or the wild island of Piana, located in the extension of the Pointe de Spérone. With its air of a lagoon at the end of the world, it offers the perfect setting for water sports and long swims, as well as a safe and welcoming place for dinner and a night at anchor.
In the morning, set off on a beautiful sail to Bonifacio. You will sail along the incredible white cliffs dominated by the citadel before entering the port: an intense moment. Bonifacio is a veritable open-air museum. It offers exceptional views from the top of its cliffs. If you feel like it, you can enjoy its lively nightlife, small bars, restaurants on the harbour or in the narrow streets, craft shops...
Dinner and overnight at anchor or alongside the quay.
Depending on the time of departure from Bonifacio, the Captain will take you to discover the Anse d'Arbitru (in Corsican, Arbitru is Arbutus), or the Plage d'Argent at Pietrosella, on the southern shore of the Gulf of Ajaccio. The Mare E Sole or "Silver Beach", nicknamed for its sand, a veritable dusting of light, enjoys an impeccable reputation: translucent water, sandbanks that allow you to walk a long way. Sail on to Cala Lunga, a beach of white sand and turquoise water, or to Tizzano, an adorable little village nestled between the rocks. A veritable paradise, Tizzano has nothing to envy the world's most famous tourist sites. Along the coast, you'll discover pretty coves ideal for lazing in the sun. The clarity and color of the water invite you to take a long, refreshing swim. Dinner and overnight at anchor.
Departure to discover Cala d'Orzu, a cove famous for its "chez Francis" beach restaurant... If you wish, you can have lunch there as an optional extra. In the afternoon, you'll stop off at Campomoro (1 hr 30 min. sail), a village with an end-of-the-world feel and unspoiled charm. Visit the Genoese tower and small museum. Return to Ajaccio at the end of the day. Dinner and overnight on board, alongside the quayside for a night stroll through the charming streets of Ajaccio. Why not take the opportunity to discover the charm of the old town?

Catamaran cruises in Corsica are ideal from late May to late September. If you're afraid of the heat, choose June for the longest days of the year and mild temperatures, or September for lower temperatures and the still-warm summer sea.
Corsica's east coast is the most interesting. From the north to the south of the island, it offers a striking coastline, perfectly suited to sailboat cruising.
Corsica, nicknamed the Isle of Beauty, is an ideal destination for a catamaran cruise. Its wild coasts, hidden beaches and exceptional marine biodiversity make it a unique place. Sailing a catamaran allows you to discover these treasures in a different way, away from the crowds and as close to nature as possible.
With CATLANTE Catamarans, explore the must-sees of Southern Corsica:
-The Lavezzi Islands: real natural gems, ideal for snorkeling and swimming in turquoise waters.
-Bonifacio: admire its spectacular cliffs and stroll through its narrow streets steeped in history.
-Ajaccio: Napoleon's birthplace, a perfect blend of cultural heritage and Mediterranean ambience.
That's a tough question. The entire east coast of Corsica is splendid. If you prefer authenticity and rugged coastlines, choose the Haute-Corse cruise; if you want more beaches and less relief, opt for the Corse du Sud cruise. Or do both!
There's no place more beautiful than Corsica. Corsica is one of the most beautiful islands in the world.
