Beach overall scores
Petit Sperone beach (South Corsica) is located outside the Piantarella 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
"The beach is famous for its incredibly fine sand and crystal-clear water. I highly recommend visiting this beach. It takes approximately 15 minutes to reach the beach by foot. It's best to leave your car parked on the busy street and make your way to the beach on foot. The scenery and views are absolutely stunning."
F. Zephyr
"The beach is absolutely incredible. It boasts beautiful white sand, crystal-clear waters, and offers an amazing view when you walk along the nearby crest. However, I wouldn't give it a perfect rating due to the excessive crowds and the challenges of finding parking and navigating through seaweed and an unpleasant odor along the beach."
