Gulf of Porto: Calanche of Piana, Gulf of Girolata, Scandola Reserve
The nature reserve, which is part of the Regional Natural Park of Corsica, occupies the Scandola peninsula, an impressive, porphyritic rock mass. The vegetation is an outstanding example of scrubland. Seagulls, cormorants and sea eagles can be found there. The clear waters, with their islets and inaccessible caves, host a rich marine life.
This tour is a small group experience for a maximum of twelve guests. A 1 ½ hour semi-rigid speedboat ride will whisk you to the Calanques where you can stop for a swim and then discover the caves while viewing majestic and breathtaking scenery!
