Latest reviews on Corsica's beaches

Plage de Fautea
8 Simonis Aivaras

The beach is a charming little spot with calm waters that are perfect for a relaxing swim. However, it's worth noting that the ocean floor is rocky, so it may not be the most comfortable experience for your feet. During the peak season in August, the beach can get quite crowded, but it tends to clear out by around 7:30pm.

Saleccia Beach
10 Ethan Kessler

This beach is truly exceptional and has a fantastic location. The scenery is breathtaking, with crystal-clear water and white sand that will make you feel like you're in the Caribbean. While it can get crowded during the peak season, it's still worth a visit. You can reach it by 4-wheel drive from Casta or by boat from St. Florent, or by car, but without 4-wheel drive, the journey down the dirt road will take a few hours. There's a famous camping site close to the beach and a lovely beach restaurant hidden in the pine trees at the other end. It's definitely worth a visit.

Abbartelo beach
10 Kiki

Very Nice beach!

Plage Pinia
10 Lucas Martinez

The car park can be reached via a dirt road, but even regular cars can travel on it. There aren't many signs, so it's best to ask the locals or use a navigation system. The beach and pine forest are both stunning and not crowded. The water is crystal clear and the sandy bottom is perfect for relaxing. You can also take a refreshing break in the cool pine forest. It's a unique experience to swim with the sound of crickets chirping in the background.

Sant Ambroggio beach
10 Marco Rossi

This beach is like paradise.

Mare E Sole beach
10 Alpine Motors

The beach was lovely and I would definitely give it a five-star rating.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 12 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!

Finding hotels in relative proximity to the beaches is usually fine. Many beaches have enough nearby accommodation, which gives good opportunities to choose the right place to stay.

The hottest month of the region is August - air temperature during this time warms up to 28.3°C and water up to 26.2°C. The coldest month is January - air temperature drops to 9.9°C and water to 14.4°C.
