Plage Pinia

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.

We had a great dining experience at the beachside restaurant. The menu offered a variety of options, which may vary depending on the day. The service was polite and welcoming. The best part was the beautiful beachfront seating, making it a worthwhile choice for the price. Making a reservation through Facebook was a breeze. We definitely look forward to returning!

This is the best beach we've visited on Corsica with our toddler. The beach offers plenty of shade and the water is pleasantly warm. We enjoyed our time here and highly recommend it to families.

There's a spacious parking lot nearby where camper vans are allowed. However, during August 2023, there was a significant fly invasion that made it quite uncomfortable to spend time at the beach (taking a nap was nearly impossible!).
Ostriconi Beach

Aurora Delmonte
This beach is fantastic! The fact that parking is free and the beach is spacious with ample room is a major plus. Although there are no services available, the water is delightful. I highly recommend it! It's on par with the better-known Saleccia or Lotu beaches, but with far fewer people.
Stintino beach

This place is definitely not a restaurant, it feels more like a scam. The food is of poor quality, the portions are small, and there are very limited options to choose from. The staff is unfriendly and lacks competence, plus they don't accept card payments and there's no ATM nearby. It would be wiser to explore other options as there are plenty of restaurants in this area.
