Corsica coast road
route du bord de mer corse
The Corsica coast road passes 600 kilometres around the coast of Corsica. En route it passes through or by many of the most interesting and important sites. If you have time for a thorough exploraion of the island, this route would make a fine starting point for your plans!
Starting from Bastia (although of course you can start anywhere) and travelling in an anti-clockwise direction, the route passes principally through or near to:
Cap Corse, Centuri, Nonza
Calvi, Galéria,
Porto, Piana, Cargèse
Propriano,
For scenic highlights in each of these regions see the 'Corsica scenery' section. Allow at least a four week visit to Corsica to follow the entire route, plus a few days to head inland to Corte. Six weeks would be better if you want to spend time on the magnificent beaches or relaxing and taking in the atmosphere, or exploring some of the many beautiful villages of the interior of Corsica.
