Beach overall scores
Plage De Porto-Novo (South Corsica) is located outside the Conte settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Corsica island, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"Untouched wilderness.
You can reach the shore by boat or a brief trek, with the trees providing natural cover.
The water is exceptionally clear and see-through, perfect for snorkeling.
I went in early September and found it to be peaceful, serene, and secluded. There were only a handful of boats and visitors."
Demi Panaretta
"One of the loveliest beaches in the vicinity... more isolated than Rondinara, far superior to the overhyped Santa Giulia. Not packed, even during peak season, provides excellent protection from winds originating from the southern areas (where the mistral also blows from the south). Challenging to access by road, ideal for anchoring near the shore, with attractive rocky cliff..."
