Cupabia Beach (South Corsica) is located outside the Pilosella a Pilusedda 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 Cupabia Beach 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.

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
"Although I haven't been to many beaches in my lifetime (with the exception of a small, chilly Nordic one), I can confidently say that Cupabia is a stunning beach that is definitely worth a visit. It's situated in a peaceful and isolated location, resulting in fewer crowds. I particularly relished the mornings when, even during peak season, the beach was devoid of people."
Liam Kessler
"The beach is stunning and stretches for quite a distance. Fortunately, it's not overrun with tourists and the water is crystal clear. If you plan on parking, it's best to do so in the morning as the lot fills up quickly and you may have to park on the side of the road. There is a restaurant on the beach, but it tends to be quite busy."
