The beach stretches on the coast of the Corsica island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the La Testa beach II with the locals.

While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone.

User reviews
"My favorite beach of the holiday in southern Corsica! It can be reached via a small road that cannot be traveled by low cars. There are few people and the water is gorgeous."
Francesca Serini
"Beautiful and you sit there alone. There are plenty of coves where you can hide, so to speak. Some with sand or gravel. Unfortunately, not all of them can be reached by car, but you do need an off-road vehicle"
