Surrounded by dunes and maritime pines, this beach is, in fact, one of the most beautiful beaches in Corsica, which explains why it attracts many vacationers from the start of the high season. To fully enjoy your day at the sea, we recommend that you choose a time when Palombaggia beach is less crowded. Whether you are going on vacation with family or friends, the best campsites in Corsica by the sea will give you direct access to the most beautiful beaches of Porto Vecchio.
Cap de Fino beach
To the northwest of Ajaccio is the beach of Cap de Fino, divided into two distinct parts: Grand Cap and Petit Cap. To easily access each of the beaches, they are connected by a country path where you will surely enjoy walking. Generally, the beaches of Cap de Fino are popular with surfers because of their rather impressive waves.
Ostriconi beach
Between the Agriate and the Ostriconi valley, you can also discover the Ostriconi beach and admire its magnificent dunes populated with large-fruited juniper trees. Located at the bottom of Peraiola Cove, this beach will be the ideal place to relax for a day or play beach games with your friends.
Rondinara beach
Located between Bonifacio and Porto Vecchio, Rondinara beach is generally recommended for bathers who want a little peace and quiet since the sea it runs alongside is rarely rough. One of the most surprising elements remains the presence of herds of cows on the beach in low season. If you are going to Corsica in the middle of summer, during the busiest period, we advise you to plan a day to discover the northern part of Rondinara beach which tends to be less crowded.
Nonza beach
Very original, Nonza beach attracts new tourists from all over the world every year with its impressive expanse of sand and black pebbles. Metallic gray in color, the black pebbles are due to waste from exploitation of the former Canari-Abro asbestos quarry. Although asbestos on this beach is harmless to health, tourists prefer to go to the village of Nonza, which offers a breathtaking view of the beach, rather than sitting there to top up their tan.
Tizzano beach
For fans of snorkeling or scuba diving, Tizzano beach will be added to your list of places to visit in Corsica. With its transparent water, many divers enjoy observing the aquatic fauna while being careful not to get too close to the rocks besieged by sea urchins. Near Tizzano, you can also discover the beach of Tralicettu, to the south, and that of Barcaggio, to the north, more difficult to access, but just as splendid.
