What travelers are saying
- Marco ALondon, UK268 contributionsWorthy to spend the day there, characteristic island. Bring your umbrella, it is almost impossible to get some shed otherwise. Also, bring food and plenty of water with you. The journey to get to Lavezzi island was worth the trip to be honest. Amazing.Written March 20, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- CarnathanLondon, UK46 contributionsWe had visited these caves with a boat, it was magical, we had visited the same style of cave in faro in PortugalWritten July 11, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- P BaileyManchester, UK24 contributionsFrom Hotel Solemare it is a short but challenging walk to the medieval citadel. Challenging because of the steep climb to its entrance. Those who have any impairment preventing them from walking or honest enough to admit that they are carrying more than a few excess pounds should consider the mini train - yes the train is very Disney but it beats a defibrillator followed by cardiac massage.
Once you get to the top it is hard to be disappointed. The citadel is beautiful even though it is crumbling in places. There are enough shops and restaurants to entertain most visitors. Churches and a cemetery make up other attractions. I did say cemetery it is a sight to behold and very photogenic.Written June 7, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - MarineLondon, UK11 contributionsHighly recommend. You get to a really wonderful landscape. So peaceful. I loved it! And I've some nice people on the way, we were hiking togetherWritten November 13, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Teri K.Singapore, Singapore46 contributionsWe went in August, but somehow the beach still had enough space such that it didn't seem overflowing with people. Waters were crystal clear, and the waves were not too strong. A great find!Written April 30, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- PMVDubai, United Arab Emirates1,204 contributionsThis nice beach is only a 10 minute drive from Bonifacio and you can easily park your car. By the parking you have 2 restaurants. You have the main beach and you walk opposite to the restaurants, you find smaller beaches were you can be alone. It is very safe to swim but not very sheltered when windy.Written October 26, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- david snetanya, israel497 contributionsOnce you pass the Strait of Bonifacio from west to east by yacht, you should continue north-east and hug the coastline. About twenty miles further from the strait this beautiful bay is located. It's full crescent-shaped and its turquoise waters and white sandy beaches are perfect for swimmers and beach goers. The yachts anchored nearby are the perfect background. Not to be missed.Written June 6, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- AleksandarBelgrade, Serbia8,213 contributionsGreat symbol that you're near Bonifacio and Corsica, as this is one of the first things you see if arriving by ferry from Sardinia.Written July 31, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- roaming_kiwi58Christchurch, New Zealand2,722 contributionsThis cemetery is at the end of the peninsula past the old town of Bonifacio, and adjacent to the Santateresa Hotel, where we were staying.
We went in the early evening, when there were few people around.
Interesting place with an impressive array of family chapels.
Worth a visit if you have time when in Bonifacio.Written October 26, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - david snetanya, israel497 contributionsAnyone going around the island of Corsica by yacht should consider stopping at this marina as a must. located in the beautiful bay of Bonifacio it occupies both banks of the eastern end, with an abundance of mooring slots for a large amount of yachts. The port is close to the main street where a large number of restaurants are practically on the water. For seafood lovers it's heaven, and there is a free shuttle to the town above. Mooring fees are in line with similar facilities on the island.Written June 6, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Niek WOosterbeek, The Netherlands176 contributionsWe visited the Illes Lavezzi during our holidays. the water is cool and full of wonderful fish. I hardly could get out of the water.
When the temperature dropped and clouds were coming the The SPMB company of Bonifacio managed to get more boats to the island quickly.Written September 1, 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - tinkle_24Northampton, UK1,455 contributionsjust behind the gate. It is some kind of mechanism that probably rolled down to shut the gate. Huge Genovese bastion. Definitely worth a visit.Written May 17, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Andy BAylesbury, UK80 contributionsNot the nicest beach we visited, but perhaps because the wind was stronger than on other days/beaches. The dirt road is long and rough but worth the effort to get there. Good beach cafe, and some other amenities, and some more shelter to the southern end. Sea is shallow a long way out, and special area has life guards for kids to play in the sea.Written July 12, 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Travel_addict13_10Australia570 contributionsIf you have the time, it is an easy 5 to 10 minute walk from the centre of the citadel. On the way there are great views and before you reach it there is the very interesting cemetery. It is only 2.50 Euro to enter and you head down the stairs. We had done the Escalier du Roy the previous day and these steps are not as challenging. There are some interesting military museum pieces as you make your way down and you come out at the southern most point, jutting out into the sea. Some of the information is in a couple of languages, including English, which made it more interesting.Written September 13, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
