What an incredible beach—stretching for around 5 km! You can also explore San Giovanni by entering through the port. The sand is soft and spotless, and the water is beautifully clear. In the early morning around 7 am, the water is cold, but by 9 am it warms up nicely, and the breeze is minimal. Later in the afternoon, it can get a bit windy. It’s an ideal place to catch the sunrise, and in summer, the sunsets behind the mountains are stunning. There are a few beach bars nearby, and while showers and restrooms are available, they are a short walk from the main entrance.

Very good beach for children perfect not deep you have to pay a working fee in high season

Beautiful white beach with deep blue sea. Perfect for on a sunny day, but still as beautiful with less good weather.

Amazing beach - it’s long for 5km. You can also discover San Giovanni accessing through port. Sand is clean, smooth; water is crystal clear… in the morning at 7 am it’s cold but starting from 9 am is warmer and warmer without wind. In the late afternoon it’s windy. Suitable to watch sunrise 🌅 and sunset in the behind the mountains in summer. There are beach bars around. There are showers and toilets but not close from the entrance.

Nice and quier place in early morning. Nice view during the sunrise.

A really nice beach. White-ish sand. Really fine and soft. You will find shells along the beachfront but not so many under water. Swimming is easy even for non swimmers as the water is ahallow for a long time. No public showers but parking is free if you park near the town center or next to the harbour of la caletta. 5/5 would swim again

Crystal clear water and nice wide sandy beach as long as you can see. Family friendly and when we were there in September it was spacious and pretty empty. (I'm guessing it's more crowded during summer) - For us it was perfect, we stopped by for a day. Waves looked good for surfing even.

Castello della Fava is a decent spot if you're looking for a panoramic 360° view of the surrounding area. The walk up to the castle is quite enjoyable, and the scenery along the way is lovely. Entry is €4 per person, which is fair, but the castle itself doesn't offer much beyond the view. If you have some free time and nothing else planned, it's worth a quick visit—but it's not a must-see.

Beautiful quaint town with stunning views. Visited Castello della Fava and really enjoyed it. The small town is very quaint and charming, with narrow streets leading up to the castle. The walk up requires a bit of effort but it's absolutely worth it once you reach the top; the views are beautiful and panoramic. Entrance was just 4 euros, very reasonable. If you're staying in Budoni or nearby, it's a great little trip and a nice break from the beach. Definitely recommend.

Entry fee 4 euro. Place is clean but needs more maintenance. You get a nice view of the surroundings. Getting on the roof of the tower can be tricky due to the small ladder and roof access hole.

Impressive view, challenging way up when it's 40°C, but it was worth it. Not so many visitors; it was quiet, and the panoramic view was stunning. A 4€ admission fee: not everyone's going to think it's worth it, but you are financially supporting the preservation of culture, so forget it; you are probably on vacation, stop counting dimes. Note, if you are bodily challenged or a bigger person, you might not fit the small trap door to the roof. Check the attached pictures.

Well worth the detour. Climbing the final stairs of the tower is like a rebirth as one has to squeeze thru a narrow opening.

Visited Castello della Fava has panoramic views. The small town has narrow cobble streets leading up to the castle. The walk up requires a bit of effort but it's worth it. Entrance is 4 euros.

Posada is pure Sardinian magic – colorful alleys, stone houses, and the most stunning view over the valley and the sea. 🌅 Wandering through the old streets feels like stepping back in time, and once you reach the top, the panorama is unforgettable. One of those villages where you just want to slow down, breathe, and stay a little longer.

Gorgeous beach I found my coincidence. The road down there is unpaved and a bit rocky. Can get adventurous depending on the weather and potholes. At the beach were small paddle boat and SUP rentals even off season. Parking was free beginning of October.

We came here by a boat and it was the best decision! There were a lot of fishes surrounding our boat bottom, turquoise water and less windy for mid September - just perfect.

amazingly beautiful beach but a bit difficult to get to. Need to park the car far away and then walk under the blazing sun

Wonderful beach, especially for kids. The water is shallow and the sand is very fine, ideal for sandcastles :)

Don't get me wrong, the beach must be amazing during low season. But the reality is, if you're going there during peak season, well you better choose something else as a destination. See the videos and the pictures I shared. You wouldn't even find a spot to place your beach towel. Even if you come early in the morning a massive crowd of people is gonna come after you, screwing everything up. There are much better places in Sardegna 😉

It’s a beautiful beach with a mix of area with sand and others with pebbles. Gets busy but you can always walk a bit more and find an empty space all for yourself. It gets really wavy when it’s windy though. We loved it, you get some shade of the trees and you can snorkel!

Definitely one of the best beaches of the island. What is really missing is a good bar. The bar is very simple. The is also an organised part of the beach with just to rows of good quality sunbeds, there is a rental of everything you imagine. The view is fantastic. The sea is very calm and the water is blue aquamarine colour. The sand is white thin and soft in the water though the sand on the beach is more pink and bigger size. Enjoy!

You only have to buy a ticket to access the beach in the summer, we went in mid-may and didnt have to. Only the parking was paid. There is access to spiaggia impostu and brandici from the same parking lot and surprisingly they are quite different. Brandicci had more shallow waters so you could walk fairly ahead with the water still being knee level. There is a small shed to change and use the toilet in brandicci. The water was really calm when we went.

The beach is nothing like it is presented in the photos. The water has a lot of algae and rocks, and the seabed is not entirely fine sand as shown. On the shore, there are many branches and trash, which makes it less enjoyable than expected.

An ok beach but definitely nothing special. Wouldn't go through all the online booking and parking for the second time

Really nice beach. Visited June 2025. All the main services available (parking, umbrellas/sunbeds, cafe, toilets)

Very beautiful beach with crystal clear water! Showers at the entrance is a bonus !

Oh noo do not believe in turistical websites and comments admiering this beach! This is a joke! Crowded absolutely nothing special. If you need my advise you can find much nicer, cleaner beautiful beaches for free where are less people even nearby!! This shows how much people believe to info shared on web or social media. You know what??! COME HERE, pay for booking and leave my loved wonderful places empty for me!😁

Stunning beach book online 2 days before entering, if you can get a qr code, only 1600 places.

really beautiful beach, I see what all the hype is about as the sand is white and water is clear. however, given you have to pay for both entry and parking, in my opinion the coast has nicer beaches that are less crowded. still worth the experience

Beautiful water, wonderful view, €2/person for entry, so many people and the beach/sand area is quite narrow. No regular towels are allowed. Only microfiber, plastic or polyester picnic blankets or reed mats. The beach police will 100% check what you laying on because you cannot take sand out of the beach. Very strict rules. Basic restaurant on site, and the GPS had a very hard time to find the main entrance. You need to look for a huge rock on the side of the road saying Cala Brandinchi

It’s the 3rd time for us visiting this beach, after 2020 and 2023 and we loved it this time even more. It is just a beautiful setting. Yes it is crowded, yes it is expensive but you know this already by the need for a reservation. My advice is to go early (preferably before 10) and walk north and you won’t have a problem in finding a spot.

Good for kids as the water is shallow but gets busy because of that. Is a private beach so you have to pay 2 euros per person and parking is 2.50 euros per hour but is worth itm

Really nice beach. Most often packed. Limit is around 1470 people. Almost 400 to much. Come early, really early. After 12 its hard to find a spot for towels.

Beautiful beach with ample parking. We entered through Giardini. Make sure you make reservations in advance!

Ah, Cala Brandinchi – affectionately known as Little Tahiti, though I suspect Tahiti might file a defamation claim if it saw the place this summer. Upon arrival, I was immediately struck by the sheer vibrancy of the beach. Not the turquoise water or the golden sand, mind you, but the dazzling array of umbrellas, inflatable flamingos, and the occasional elbow to the ribs. It’s a rare talent to make one feel nostalgic for the peaceful serenity of a rush-hour subway in Milan. The beach itself is… how shall I put it… rich in texture. Every few meters you’ll find delightful surprises: an empty plastic bottle here, a half-buried chip bag there. It’s almost like a scavenger hunt curated by Poseidon himself. For marine life enthusiasts, this is the place to be. Forget aquariums — here, you can witness the majestic Sardinian shark (photographic evidence included). Truly thrilling, especially when one is still in the water. As evening approached, I discovered that leaving the beach with one’s dog can be quite an odyssey. Between the labyrinth of sunbeds and the scent of melted sunscreen, one wonders if Odysseus himself ever tried to find his way back to the car park. And let us not forget the mysterious sea creature that emerged from the depths — an elderly gentleman dressed as a mermaid. I can’t say whether he was a local legend or a performance artist, but I do applaud his commitment to aquatic authenticity. All in all, Cala Brandinchi is the perfect destination for those who enjoy chaos with a touch of mythology. Come for the crowd, stay for the confusion. Five stars for entertainment, two for actual relaxation.

We enjoy this beach. It is on the smaller side paying parking lot walking distance. We were here before the summer not as crowded. Beautiful clear water, there is a beach club walking distance for drinks food and more $$$-$$$$. If you need to use the restroom they do charge $1 Euro for to use it unless you eat at the drink bar or rent the lounge and umbrellas. This beach is good for couples, somewhat families with older children. The only downside the constant annoyance of beach sellers.

Amazing water for snorkeling and swimming; gets busy and crowded very quickly. The Best time is early morning. Parking is not too big, so if you come after 9.30, you might not find a car parking space. There is a small beach on the left hand side and two beaches on the opposite side. It’s very nice and definitely worth visiting!

Visited in october, after 5 p.m. so we found the place to park the car (first hour is ~2.55€/h) the beach is small but cozy, smooth sand and clear water

Beautiful beach that can get crowded fast since there are small bays. Clear and clean water, as most beaches in Sardinia. Parking nearby is 1,50€ per hour and payment is required until Oct 31st.

Really nice beach with cristal clear water and white sand. The parking is close, but small , you may find it full early in summertime

Great Beach with clear water. Only 2 min from the parking.

crowded but very very beautiful! you don’t have to reserve a spot like at other spots 🤸🏼

The beach is stunning itself, but be aware that it is tiny, has no public toilets or showers, and has a barely alive food and drinks track—definitely not worth the time and climbing effort to get there. Parking is available for a fee, some free spots by the road

The beach is nice - it’s really beautiful with turquoise water, the sand is white and soft and clean. It takes around 10 mins of easy walk from the parking. Alternatively, a tuk tuk service is available but no reason to use it unless you have trouble moving around. This beach gets really crowded though so the best time to visit is early morning or late in the evening. Parking is likely also problematic in the peak hours. The swimming area is pretty wide but the large part of is it really shallow. There were also a bunch of seagulls which was not so nice. Water was on the colder side at the end of August. Overall I can recommend this one, it’s one of those more popular ones due to the easier access and not an exceptional gem but it’s still good and beautiful.

Small, very very beautiful beach. For my taste, too small and too crowded even in September. Recommended.

What a lovely surprise!! It is a bit of a hike to get to the beach, but it is worth every step. It is a paradise with white sand and crystal-clear blue water, just spectacular.

Spiaggia Poltu Di Li Cogghj is beautiful! There’s parking available, and it’s about a 10–15 minute hike to get there. It does get crowded, but the crystal-clear water makes it worth it. There are also people walking around selling hats and towels on the beach, which I personally found a bit annoying.

Amazing beach, spent all day here, crystal clear sea and a bar nearby if needed. Honestly feels like paradise

So beautiful beach. 15 minutes walking from parking. Parking 2.5 e per hour. Cristal and clean water. Pure paradise ❤️

Interesting quick visit. Super cute to see pipistrelli bats. They lend you a torch. €3 entrance. Not a lot to see immediately but you could hike from here I guess

A well conserved and interesting place. The place is being managed by archeologists and they are doing a good job. Tickets are 3,50 per person, or 5 with audio.

Really nice Nuraghe, takes some minutes to walk to from parking lott. Just before the site there is a restaurant. The excavation site was informative. We got a flashlight to see mini bats in one of the rooms in the Nuraghe. Very friendly staff. Recomended

Very cool site depicting the ancient history of Sardinia and it's inhabitants. Well preserved and complete, well documented and easy to find. The caretaker is very knowledgeable and speaks English. Admission for children is free and adults are only €3 each.

Beautifully conserved nuraghe in a lovely forest setting with really interesting video information that’s well worth paying the extra 1.5 euro for. Bonus baby bats 🦇😊Also, really nice and exceptionally clean toilets 😆

Amazing how people could make such a building so long ago,well preserved. Compliments for the staff and the ambiance of the place. There were even cosy and clean toilets.

Very interesting archeological site. Beautiful view from the upper floor, you can see Tempio and the mountains. The owner is a very sweet lady and knows a great amount of the place.

A wonderful place to visit with a low draft sailing boat. The permit cost is 40% cheaper for sailing boats, which is logical and we appreciate that. Powerboats are noisy and generate pollution. The park has hundreds of places where to anchor, pristine and ecologically sound. The park authorities obviously do a good job!

After spending some days at Capo Testa, where we enjoyed snorkeling and discovering a reach underwater life, we decided to take a boat trip to the Maddalena National Park. We were full of expectation, thinking how wonderful it may be snorkeling there. Sailing with the wind in a small crew was a good start, but the the stop at the first cove was very disappointing: we were expected to swim between moving boats, so we risked to see nothing, life under water almost not existing. We were told that since it is September now there is less nautic trafic, but we witnessed every kind of boats coming from all directions and very close to the coves. We anchored in a more quiet and less touristic cove but again underwater life very poor. The day was at the end pleasant because of sailing and a nice skipper and the visit to the Cala Rosa, which is really protected, but we understood that the National Park is not a place to protect nature rather it is a place to make money, a LunaPark for reach tourist. I hope things will change and more ecologic tourism, which still advantage local people, will develop. Instead of taking a boat trip, please look for nice caves along the cost and you will have more fun and save money!😊

Beautiful landscape. Best is island Caprera which is connected to La Maddalena with a bridge. You can do nice walks in the national park.

Extremely clear and turquoise water. It's good to rent a pneumatic boat alone around 270 euros / day in August. From Palau you can walk about an hour to the interesting beaches and the pool area

Just Outstanding. We ALL have to protect these places. Some Plastic Pollution also here, but engaged local People to Clean it!

Beautiful clear water, blue skies almost every day, honestly a perfect place to go on vacation and relax

It is definitely a must see in Sardinia. You need to take a ferry from Palau, but it's absolutely worthy. Beautiful crystal water and sandy beaches

This beach has nothing interesting outside of the view on yachts that anchor in the bay. It’s fairly small, located near the road, the water feels on the dirty side, there is not so much place and it’s not super picturesque. Overall I’d avoid this one

Nice beach, I think there are nicer one around the island but my partner was very fond of this one. If you are keen you can walk through the water to get to some quiet spots :) i stepped on a sea urchin so be careful!

Wonderful place with many advantages. Great service offered there. Umbrellas and sunbeds are high quality and comfortable. Beach is located in a very quite place protected from wind. Anna Lisa offers so great support and possibility of earlier reservation. Strongly recommended

Great little beach on La Maddalena. Rock formations surround this beach on three sides, making it naturally sheltered from the wind. On the very left there’s a tiny separated part, so if you’re lucky, you can fee like you are all alone there

Beautiful beach with good snorkeling! Nice little bar although we only got drinks. Beach can get quite busy.

Lovely little secluded beach, very quiet and peaceful, lots of little fish in the sea

the water was not so clean as in other areas around Sardegna. I think there are much better places/ beaches to visit in La Maddalena

Large beach split by a dune. Fine sand, a lot of dried posidonia end up on the beach. Not many people on it. Loungers to hire available. Beach can get very windy and wavy and recommended to very strong swimmers. Lifeguard present.

Beautiful beach, with clear water and nice waves. Disneys Arielle was filmed in this place. Paradise Beach Bar was also a good possibility to have food and drinks and a toilette.

Super windy beach with lots of areas of seaweed on the day I visited. Red flag and waves, good for Kite surfing but not at all swimming or sunbathing in the otherwise pretty sand. Posibility to hike along the coastline cliffs. Parking really close, gets full pretty fast. Another (free) parking in the village by the square with Supermercato and Cafes. 10-15 min walk between parking & beach.

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.

People and Travelguide told that it's Sardegnas most beautiful beach... We found others that been nicer, cleaner and with much cooler landscape surrounding...

Fantastic beach. Very intimate after the season. I did not use the bar offer because it was too late.

It was so beautiful! Have a little walk to the beach, don't be scared just a little walk and the view is so amazing. Have a drink at the bar on the right side and enjoy the view here!

Nice long beaches, not too crowdy.

This was our closest beach. Compared to others it's nothing special. But it is really long (and connected to the others) so it's rarely very crowded, which is a huge plus, especially in august!! The water is clear but starts with deeper right away. Also it is often windy and it gets seaweed. All in all, we really enjoyed it.

Beach is a bit steep and was always very windy with big waves when we got there so swimming wasn't really possible. Many parking spots for cheap (-,50€/h) available

Nice Sandy beach that runs for kilometers from West to East. Sea is shallow and not deep at all. The more you move towards east the least people you encounter. Towards Isola Rossa is stunning

Nice but too many people

Amazing place with waves during windy days. Parking places abailable right in front of beach cost 0.80€ per hour

A lot of space. But when we were there, the water was full of seaweed and there where large waves. Not the best beach for kids as it also gets deep fast.

Perfect for families and snorkel, peaceful and relaxing

A little bit windy at time (June 2025), but otherwise nice clean beach with all main needed amenities (close parking, cafe, sunbeds,..).

Windy day but seems like a beautiful beach, only surfers were around

Amazing beach, amazing clear waters and super convenient if you are staying in Hotel Marinedda!

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!! 😋

Simply amazing beach....i hope to come back with waves

The crystalic clear sea and sand beach. Very nice place! 👍

Absolutely stunning place! The rock formations here are truly a masterpiece of nature😌 each one shaped by time and wind into unique, almost surreal sculptures. The views over the turquoise sea are breathtaking, and the entire area feels like a magical escape. Highly recommended for nature lovers and photography enthusiasts💙

Fantastic place to trek and enjoy beaches. The granite natural sculpture and the abandoned lighthouse make this place surreal. Plenty of option and also you could spot some of the locals ( 🐐) climbing 😁. I would say is difficult with small kids due to access to the beach is quite rocky

Stunning walking area and beautiful turquoise sea! We saw a tortoise walking in the wild near Valle de la Luna. Amazing place!

Was a great day with some amazing views! Great with kids, can climb pretty much all over. Even the coffee bar at the top was great… good burgers and great fries

Really impressing rocks & worth a visit! Parking not so easy and the trails need some hints where to go. The beach directly at Capo Testa is a unique place, but extremely crowded - and hard to reach (some „climbing“).

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.

In a gorgeous world to see there don’t think twice if you are in town you have to do it Make sure to have a jacket Arrive early and buy your tickets in advance

We had a lovely stay in Bonifacio, Federica is a lovely host, giving us a warm welcome and lots of tips! Very helpful, the space is comfortable and has everything one needs. There's also an amazing view of the cliffs and Sardinia! Bonifacio is a beautiful town and there are several unspoiled beaches that can be reached by private car.

Bonifacio and also the whole south of Corsica are to be seen and experienced in every way.

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.

When you visit Bonifacio, it's worth to take the tour of the stairs. Nice to see, but not spectacular. It's a steep descent, followed of course by an equally steep ascent. Good workout!

Classic Christine 5/5 A workout, paired with history, and amazing views sign me up 😗 Added bonus, a cute helmet accessory. These 189 steps were built in the 1400s so Corsicans could escape if any funny business arose back then because frankly that’s all there was to do, was try to conquer your neighbors island so why not build 189 staircase insurance policy. If my screen time were 0 hours I would do the same. My only advice, go as early as possible to avoid people panting behind you to go faster. Like hello, what happened to living in the moment as we role play fleeing the island? Anyway, it’s amazing and only €5, plus a great way to justify a Spritz afterwards. Don’t wear a fishnet shirt like I did, I was schvitzing although I did look cutesy (see attached photos) so maybe it was worth it… Follow Classic Christine for more tips ;)

Very steep 189 steps dug by hand into the cliff face. We went in August. It was very crowded and very hot. We saw a few people really struggling so take care , go early on the morning

A good workout. the panoramic views are the best. You need to be in shape since they are tough

Cool thing to do- slightly touristic but still worth it! Amazing views.

20 min walk in total and the views are worth it. Do it close to sunset time. The colors as magical.

Very good legs workout :D Amazing view that deserves the effort

Beautiful clean water, with some parts more crowded than others. Parking for free is tricky, better either choose a beachclub if you plan to eat anyways (parking fees will be deducted), or there are large cheap parkings at the north eastern end.

A must see in the south of Corsica. When we went it was raining but the sea water was still warm. Easy access, cheap parking and lovely bar on the beach. Overall a great beach.

Best plage 🏝️👌 If you come to the south of Corsica, be sure to go to this beach

Great beach, turquoise water and it was not crowded but parking is ridiculously expensive, 35 eur for 5 hours on the beach or in best case 11.20 eur for 4 hours. And then you have to walk 600 meters downhill and coming back to the car is a real training. There is one bar and one restaurant with prices for Space tourism

I went there very much at the end of the season. No problem parking plenty of place on the beach. Temperature was perfect for me. Could still get a drink. I appreciate others may have different experiences if they go in July or August but has to be one of the most stunning beaches in France.

Amazing place with great food, drinks, music and breathtaking water

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!!!

Absolutely stunning beach , the water is crystal clear and the backdrop of tees around the bay is glorious. Some fabulous beaches bars too. We recommend La Plage and Le Fort. The downside is it gets super busy in peak season. If you have to go in August go early morning, if you are lucky enough to go late September, you will be in paradise !

Lovely beach, but very crowded and the parking costs 20€ 🤨. Also some places full of seagrass. But water is clean, no big waves.

A bit crowded, but nice water and actual sand. I don't like jetskies or parasailing, makes the natural experience bad. I liked the good bars on the beach to have lunch.

The beach consists of a long narrow strip of fine clean sand (between 10m and 30m in width), skirting a bay of very shallow clear water which extends at least 50 m from the shoreline. The setting is hardly spectacular but the peninsula making up the South side of the bay provides a pretty backdrop. On a fine sunny weekday afternoon towards the end of September the beach was busy, but not oppressively so. All the usual water sports/activities were available and the beach is also a drop-off/pick-up point for cruises along the coast. Various bars - none very special - are dotted along the central part of the beach, closest to the parking areas. Was it quiet or romantic : no, would it be a fine place for small children to paddle in the water : emphatically yes. In line with the reports from other reviewers, I can easily imagine that it would be an absolute zoo in July and August.

Great beach in the south of Corsica. Very overrated in my opinion. Very expensive ar park, flat rate 10 pounds. A lot of bars on the beach which kind of ruins the experience. It can be quite crowded as well. Clean water lovely views. Great for kids.

Stunning beach and surroundings, very clean and transparent water. Many options for water activities. Plenty of restaurants

We were here 2 weeks ago, not over impressed, it what to busy and the sea wasn’t as clear as many people had described. If I’m honest I was a little bit disappointed

A free scenic attraction in beautiful mountainous wooded surroundings. The pools are quite large and very pleasant in the hot weather. Recommend sand less or something with a grip and the stone is slippery especially where algae is present. The parking charge was reasonable and paid on exit. No charge further charges. The walk to the pools took about 20 minutes on foot. Or you can get a free shuttle bus that departs every 20 minutes. There is a restaurant near the pools, but we didn’t use it.

Unique experience to cool down in the natural waters, however do not expect shadows (or very few) to chill after a bath. Can be accessed by an uphill walk of 1 km on a sunny dirt road. Toilets and a great restaurant nearby.

Beautiful natural scenery, a small river flows through a granite valley and forms countless beautiful pools, many of which are suitable for swimming. There is a paid parking lot at the beginning of the valley, and a marked hiking trail leads through the valley. The trail is challenging in places, but even children can manage it.

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!!

Nice valley to hike and cool down in the water.

The way to this Piscines it's really nice and great to have a good hiking, but location of piscines isn't so nice and the water it's very dirty.

Beautiful river with lots of waterfalls and lagoons. There are quite a lot of tourists, but you can find a place without tourists. The path is a little broken, but it can be done. Children love it here.

This beach comes highly recommended by many, but in my opinion, it is somewhat overrated. When we arrived, the beach was in the condition shown in the photos – more than half of it was unfortunately covered in seaweed. However, there were parts of the beach where this didn't detract from its beauty, allowing us to fully appreciate its charm. The water was excellent, providing a refreshing experience, and the sand was pleasantly soft underfoot. One of the biggest downsides of this beach is the road leading to it. The drive takes about 10 minutes over a very bumpy road. However, I think some of the other reviews exaggerate the difficulty of the journey. While you don't need a special vehicle, as many suggest, it is true that you need to be cautious, especially with a low-clearance car. We saw all kinds of vehicles in the parking lot at the end, including some low-set cars. It just requires careful driving to avoid scraping the bottom of your car. If your vehicle has decent ground clearance and isn't too low, you should manage just fine. The real question is whether the beach is worth the effort. Lastly, there's the neighboring beach, Plage de Erbaju, which is much larger and visible on the map. It’s said that you can walk to it from this beach, but we didn’t find any clearly marked paths. The paths through the bushes near the parking area were very overgrown, and while it might be possible to make the trek, it would likely be challenging, especially if you're carrying items or have children with you. We contacted the exclusive restaurant on that beach, and they informed us that it is a private beach, only accessible by reservation and without children. So, perhaps if you walk there, you might be able to enjoy the beach, but unfortunately, we weren’t able to.

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 itself is nice but can be overcrowded (23 of July), the water was more refreshing than on other beaches. The road to the beach is overestimated in terms of difficulty, we did it on VW Touran without any issues - just cautious and attentive drive and some experience of driving on unpaved terrain.

The best beach of the entire Corsica, amazing is a big pool thin sand very light color and water calm and warmer

Had no issue driving on the road in my Ford Fiesta. The beach was stunning and crystal clear. Keep in mind that the sand is very fine and in case of wind it is a bit annoying because the sand becomes airborne.

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 😉

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.

Not worth driving out of your way for. Was an odd experience. Everything looked closed. We walked to the baths and they were a little under whelming. No one bothered pulling their phones out for a photo. Probably a nice getaway for a couple and not for teenage kids.

The baths are ok! But the hotel is not ok... the bed is uncomfortable, and they told my boyfriend it was mandatory to stay 2 nights due to high season and when we arrived it was EMPTY, after that people arrived and they were allowed to stay 1 night! It’s not nice to see how they bribe you in front of you! 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! I starred with 2 stars because the food of the restaurant is good! Not the breakfast!

Lovely relaxing experience It's inexpensive 7 Euros for approximately mins.

Nice bains. Polite in case you are able to speak french. If not, it is like normal in french or in this case corsica...the staff is not polite anymore

We enjoyed each second indulging in hot spring in Corsica! This place comes as a surprise and with the quality of onsen, facility, charges, and service, we are happy to recommend to our friends.

Nothing fancy, very simple and cute. The restaurant was good. Will be back

Relaxing.. although, I'm a bit of a germaphobe, I question wether they clean it often because there were black little dirt floating everywhere.. Im guessing those are dead skin cells..

Very friendly staff and a great view. After a long hike we very much enjoyed the wild boar stew and veal in tomato sauce. The food was good and the service was quick

Amazing location and landscape. We were simply amazed by the delicious food and very good service. Not to mention the affordable prices. We returned after 2 days for another delicious meal. Definitely deserves coming back!

Fantastic food, service and view! There’s nothing not to like about this place, it’s the perfect mountain stop. The crepes were amazing, and the people were incredibly welcoming and friendly. I’d love to drop by again at some point!

Fantastic views. Service quite ok. Food so so…

Payment by card only from 50 euros. Only sandwiches on the menu. We do not recommend!

Restaurant with excellent view! All food we ordered was delivered fast and was delicious 👌

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.

Absolutely amazing experience. Had so so much fun, they were so professional, kind and comforting. Seb was so comforting and reassuring and I didn’t feel nervous at all. Highly recommend.

What an amazing experience! The team was so knowledgable and friendly. They made everyone feel very comfortable and ensured we would all have a great time skydiving! Can’t wait to do it again.

It was so unbelievable!!! My guide was so nice and helpful! The home team was very supportive and friendly, absolutely amazing!! Thank you!!!

Absolutely unreal experience. Great instructors who are highly confident. 10/10

Really crazy experience ! Such nice instructors and a beautiful view over Corsica… something you should definetly do :)

It was such a great fun ! 100% recommended

Good job

Would definitely recommend stopping in here for a dive way back into prehistory. It's a beautiful place, interesting old ruins, and a nice hike too!

Beautiful, but partly not authentic. A stunning site, very impressive and larger than we were expecting. Some of the menhirs (including the most impressive ones) outside are replicas though. This wouldn't be a problem: it is great these monuments are protected against the elements. But it is mentioned nowhere on the signs or in the audio tour. The real ones are found inside, in the museum. They should be clear and honest about this. Entry is 9 euros. This is very reasonable in our opinion, since the site is very large, there is a museum and conserving these monuments is not free.

way better than I expected. stopped in here on our way from Ajaccio to Bonaficcio. lovely little cafe on site, nice shop, very friendly service from staff in restaurant, ticket sales and shop. was lovely to walk around the site, see the olive tree and marvel at the history. 9 euro per adult, they don't take credit cards, but you can pay at the restaurant next door

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.

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.

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)

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.

This place is fantastic. We visited in 2024 on an organised trip and ran out of time so came back again this year. The animals are well cared for and they are very active. Great for adults and children alike and good value in my opinion. We allowed two hours this time but we could have done with two and a half.

Well worth a visit. A huge selection of turtles and tortoises in beautiful surroundings. A large portion of the enclosures are under shade, which was very welcome. In more open areas there were two overhead walkways that sprayed a fine mist underneath. Food prices seemed reasonable. Lots of parking (free). And don’t worry, if you see an upturned turtle they can right themselves.

There are really a lot of interesting types of turtles. We spent about 2.5 hours on the visit. But at the end, the kids got bored with just watching the turtles. But we also saw and caress two cats.

Seems like animals Are being taken care of and they have enough space . Well kept Environment. One star less because we couldn’t see all animals. Especially wanted to see an alligator turtle :/ and some animals have been moved to a greenhouse (probably too cold for them ). There’s a small cafe . Service friendly

Excellent turtle zoo. Lots of species in very well done enclosures.

Beautiful turtle and tortoise zoo with a huge amount of different turtles and tortoises in a very well kept park.

My second visit. Very excited well organised and educational. Parking space a bit crowded, even on weekdays.

Really nice place for acrobranche. Many routes but mostly ziplines and little originality. Also safety not optimal, no helmets! And only lower body harness ( other parks also have over shoulders). With ziplines the line is too close to head. Only able to pay cash. Only 1 toilet, men are advised to go in the woods for toilet.

Just great. 17 routes, everybody will choose

The hardest routes have a significantly higher difficulty level than high ropes courses we've visited elsewhere.

Genial

Ok

Super moment
