Bonifacio

Bonifacio is a town on the southern tip of the French island of Corsica. It is known for its lively marina and medieval cliff-top fort.

It lies about 9 m from Santa Teresa di Gallura in Sardinia. You can also take a ferry.

We entered on our yacht Rachel.

The berth is crowded & narrow, so the bow thruster will come in handy.

The helpful marina staff guided us to the dock.

You can climb up ancient steps carved into the cliff face, preferably with walking shoes. The ascent is also possible by train – for 5 euros.

There are also hiking trails out to the lighthouse and breathtaking views.

Lots of restaurants & bars, so in the season the place is very hectic

There are stating anchorages around:

Îles Lavezzi, La Catena, Plage du Fazzio, Plage de Paraguan, Isola Piana, Plage du Petit Sperone.
