Visit Propriano
The coastal town of Propriano is found in south-west Corsica, at the head of the Valinco Gulf.
'Modern' Propriano dates from the 19th early century, when the port was established and most of the buildings constructed. Although the same location had previously been occupied by the Romans and Greeks little remains of early Propriano, which was frequently attacked and mostly destroyed.
It is now one of the most popular resorts in Corsica, due to the numerous beaches that are close to hand for visitors to Propriano, including the Plage de Lido 1 km from the town. The coast north of the town is very built up however, and it can be a challenge to escape from the hordes.
Ferries to both Sardinia and mainland France operate from the town marina.
The renowned village of Campomoro is nearby, with its fine beach and lovely setting, and is always a very popular place with visitors to this region of Corsica.
