Beach overall scores
Plage de Furnellu (South Corsica) is located outside the Porro 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 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 Plage de Furnellu with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., 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
"Absolutely stunning! This beach is one of the best in Europe, if not the world. It has a wild and rugged beauty that sets it apart. It's easily accessible with plenty of parking, and in June it's not too crowded, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. I highly recommend it!"
Renzo
"The beach is easily accessible from the land, with designated swimming areas on the left and boat parking in the center and to the right. The water is clean, the sand is fine, and there is a lot of algae along the shore. By the end of June, the beach is usually empty."
