PORTO VECCHIO
CORSICA
At lunchtime leave the anchorage at Plage Santa Giulia and make way
to vibrant Porto Vecchio (1.25 hours underway).
Known as the St Tropez of Corsica, Porto Vecchio is a mixture of
old and new: the haute-ville is a well-preserved example of Genoese
medieval architecture. Bustling narrow streets around the main
square are fascinating and the bastion has a fabulous view over the
port below. The main square is flanked by cafes and restaurants and is
a great place to watch the traditional evening promenade. Beach
lovers will enjoy Palombaggia, the pale stretch of sand lined with
fragrant pines.
Your Captain will reserve a berth at Porto Vecchio marina for the
night or the yacht can remain at anchor.
