Ile Rousse in 1 day

If you only have 1 day to spend in Ile Rousse, we’ve narrowed down the top places you should check out to get the best experience of your time here.
L’Île-Rousse is known for its striking red granite rocks, turquoise waters, and gently shelving sandy beaches that are easy to enjoy without a car. The compact old town centers on a lively main square lined with cafés and a daily market, giving it a relaxed, village-like feel. A short walk up to the Pietra lighthouse offers panoramic views of the Balagne coast and nearby mountains. With good ferry connections and a slower pace than Corsica’s larger resorts, it makes a convenient base for exploring northern Corsica.
With favorites like Plage de l'Ile Rousse, La Bodega, and Mercatu Cupartu di L’Isula Rossa, we’ll make sure you don’t miss out on all the must sees. We even included some of our favorite food spots around the area, like Les tamaris and L'Altore so you can get the best taste of Ile Rousse while you’re here. To see our full list of food recommendations, check out our best restaurants post. If you're traveling on a budget, you can check out our cheap eats post.

Very rude and unhelpful. Asked for directions to a book store to buy a book on walking but that seemed not possible. Was given a used copy to look at so I took a picture of the map in the book.

Outdoor Activities
The Plage de l'Ile Rousse is a small, serene beach situated in a charming town. It offers soft, pristine white sand and a pleasant promenade for leisurely strolls. If you're looking to bask in the sun, there are numerous other beautiful beaches nearby such as Cala di SantAmbrogio and Plage dAlgajola. Additionally, adventurous souls can embark on boat tours departing from Calvi's harbor for both day-long excursions and multi-day trips.
BEAUTIFUL BEACH with crystal clear water. Easy access. Good for kids and snorkeling. You can rent a paddle board from Miss Paddle at reasonable price. Highly recommend!

Honestly one of the best beaches in Corsica, if you go to the very left of the beach you can find some more solitude from the massive crowd (even tho there’s still gonna be a lot of people. The water is crystal clear, it’s like being in the Carribeans!

Really nice and clean beach, few steps away from the town. Not overcrowded, but more people in the afternoon. If you want to rent a sunbed and umbrella you need to make a reservation the day before at one of the bars. We paid 15€ for one sunbed per day. Payment by card possible.

Nice calm beach. Easy parking near the beach in a charming town with good restaurants and cafes, and an occasional open market. It’s a public non-hidden beach, so sometimes gets crowded. The town is great.

Beach pavillion
Anse de Pietra is a splendid bay nestled away from the commotion of Ile Rousse's beaches. It offers a serene escape for beachgoers seeking tranquility and respite from the bustling city center, which can be reached by a leisurely 15-minute stroll. The pavilion at this picturesque cove provides visitors with a place to relax and enjoy the beauty of their surroundings while soaking up the sun and listening to the gentle lapping of the waves.

Mediterranean restaurant
Les Tamaris is a delightful beach restaurant that captures the essence of Mediterranean cuisine in a fresh and inviting atmosphere. Nestled along the stunning coastline, it offers an array of freshly sourced seafood and regional delicacies, complemented by a diverse selection of local wines and creative cocktails. Families will appreciate the thoughtful amenities, including a kids' menu and high chairs, making it an ideal spot for all ages.
Loved this place! Relaxed elegant atmosphere, great location, friendly people enjoying their work. I had the Salad La mere, which is remarkable! With tuna and prawns, and a sauce made in heaven.. full of aromatic herbs and earthy spices. Also decent house wine by the glass, very fairly priced
Christine P — Google review
A beautiful location right on the main beach of L’Île-Rousse. Unfortunately, the staff was often inattentive and at times almost rude, and the quality of the food did not justify the high prices. I recommend Tamaris for sunbeds and a freshwater shower, just make sure to book in advance. The atmosphere there was quiet, comfortable, and a bit more affordable than other spots, so I'd go back.
Nicoló R — Google review
A very nice place on the beach. Beautiful scenery and good selection of drinks. The place has been recently renovated as it does not look anything like on other poctures posted one year ago. No payment by card which may be problematic.
Beata B — Google review
The view is great. The Beach is great. The pasta was really non tasty. The burger not to good but acceptable …the french fries seemed to be left overs .. extremely small. Pizza alright and the salad acceptable but expensive. Most of the staff seems tired and off at the restaurant. The Beach service guy however was really nice and service-mindet. It was to expensive compared to the quality of food. However it was fast but we also ate quite late in the afternoon. I would have chosen next door restaurant - but they where closed. So. I would recommend to be curious somewhere else if you want really good food. I only give the place 3 stars due to the view and beach setting. Otherwise between 1 and 2.

Loved this place! I had such a great ice cream in here, I think this was the passion one. The lemonade was probably one of the best I've had also! Such a vibe, with the sea and beach view, and not on the sun - it was quite good to be inside this restaurant around the evening. Fast service, friendly staff, good deserts!

Food is very average, for such a price we definitely expected something better then that. Pasta with mussels was just a huge plate of pasta which had almost no taste and few mussels in it. Service was okay though. Just the price which is not matching the quality of plate and nothing special.

Food quality is good, but I'm just surprised with the small portion of set menu compared to the ala carte menu. Waiter is friendly but not so attentive, especially when I was about to pay, the waiter gave me bill, and later casually walk around, chit chat with colleagues (he saw me waving but ignore).

Nestled in the heart of Bonifacio, La Bodega stands out as a gem that captures the essence of Corsican cuisine without falling into the tourist trap category. This charming eatery offers a delightful array of traditional dishes, including their popular "assiette degustation," which features an enticing selection of meats, lasagna, and local specialties like Bonifacio-style aubergine. The ambiance is inviting and cozy, making it one of the top spots for both dining and cocktails in town.
If you want to have a SUPER NICE AND FUN NIGHT go to La Bodega. The food is fantastic and the staff is super professional! That take care of you during the whole night. After dinner you can dance, enjoy the music and having the great cocktails or hand made rum with a different tastes.

Really nice food and good selection of local wines. The waiter recommended us a nice local red from Calvi, which was fantastic and very reasonably priced. The place is at the end of the busy street, in a nice quiet-ish corner and has plenty of tables so we managed to get a table at 8pm without a booking.

Great food and great service! We’ve been here fo a sneaky afternoon drink (or two) and came back for dinner the next evening. Most likely the best service we had in all of Île Rousse, from waitress/waiter to bartender, owner and furry employee of the year 🐕 The food was delicious and looked fabulous. 10/10, can highly recommend! Thank you - we would come back anytime! 💙

I really enjoyed my lunch here. I was seated upstairs and with the weather quite fine I liked that they had the windows open and I had a pretty good view from up there. Food and wine were good too. ;-) I started with some fritto misto and then moved on to some tomatoes and burrata.

Absolutely loved our visit. The food was delicious with generous portions and excellent quality throughout. Service was prompt and friendly, and the owner went out of his way to be helpful and supportive. The value for money was outstanding, truly great price-performance ratio. The setting is equally impressive: well-shaded, breezy, and offering a fantastic view. It’s also easily accessible, even with a rollator. Highly recommended for a relaxed and enjoyable meal.

Glorified fastfood "restaurant". Obviously floating on their previous reputation and their favourable location by the sea. How it is possible to ruin crab to such a degree that it tasted cellulose, or tinned dry tasteless mackerel in a heavy tomato paste, is beyond me. Absolutely no seafood taste at all. 3 portion were served, 5 guests all tasted it and agreed it was horrible and was left on the table. We love crab and seafood and have eaten seafood for decades all over Europe, never have we been more disappointed by a Chef's recommendation.

We went twice in this restaurant during our holiday in L'Île-Rousse and our experience was excellent both times, The service was excellent (Leo was grate for suggesting the dishes) and the manager was very attentive. The meal portions are pretty big, so have in consideration when ordering starters. We tried Mussels (Cap Corse dressing), sea bass, linguine Al Fredo, Tuna and Beef, everything was perfect. The Profiterole was enormous (definitely for 2 persons) and delicious, we also have lemon tart for desert. The Cap Corse mussels were our favorite We highly recommend this restaurant, it was our best restaurant experience in L'Île-Rousse

Restaurant has a great location but is severely let down by the quality of food and the service. We ordered the seafood linguine that lacked taste, was not fresh and felt stale. Providing this feedback to the manager was not well received and was extremely rude. It’s a shame!

Disappointing Experience – Poor Service & Quality We had a really disappointing experience at this restaurant. After approaching the waitress and speaking in English, we asked if Italian would be easier. Rather than helping or referring us to a colleague, she responded rudely and continued to serve us with an unwelcoming attitude. We ordered a Caesar salad, a mixed fried seafood platter, and mussels. Despite the restaurant not being busy (it was already 3 PM), we waited over 30 minutes without even being served bread. Things got worse when a French family sat next to us — they were served within 10 minutes. Meanwhile, we finally received our mixed seafood platter, which came with a hair in it. We politely asked for a replacement. Instead of getting a fresh plate, the same cold one was brought back to us shortly after. Frustrated, I went to the entrance and asked to speak with a manager. Only then did they send out an Italian manager who could understand us. To his credit, he apologized and offered to remove the dish from the bill, but by then the experience was already ruined. The food itself wasn’t great either — bland and underwhelming overall. Bottom line: avoid this place. Rude service, long waits, and poor hygiene don’t make it worth your time or money.
