Climb on board in Ajaccio for a trip to the Scandola nature reserve and the Gulf of Girolata, featuring notable landscapes and rock formations.

Scandola and Girolata Boat Trip

Meet early in the morning at Tino Rossi pier to board the boat for a trip along the western coast of Corsica.

During the maritime journey, enjoy views of the unique rock formations renowned in this region, which is also home to various bird species, including the peregrine falcon and the osprey.

The boat will arrive at the peninsula of Scandola, a land and marine nature reserve designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1983. This area consists of volcanic rock formations rising dramatically from the sea, shaped by centuries of erosion. The contrasting colors of the rocks against the Mediterranean Sea create a striking visual experience.

The trip continues to the Gulf of Girolata, featuring the 18th-century Genovese tower overlooking the fishing village. A two-hour stop will be made for exploration of the village's streets and to enjoy local cuisine at nearby restaurants.

On the return journey, pass by the scenic coves of Piana and Cape Rosso, which are part of the remarkable volcanic landscape of the region.
