Cap Corse

Often called an island within an island, the Cap Corse is a maquis covered peninsula whose history sets it apart from the rest of the island.

Forty kilometres long and only fifteen across, the rocky peninsula of Cap Corse gives access to some exceptionally beautiful and unspoilt stretches of coast.

Villages perched on cliffs and secluded rocky inlets line the west; tiny fishing ports and sandy coves fringe the east.

Worth visiting is Nonza, a flower-garnished slate roofed village, which seems to have sprouted from its craggy foundations. Centuri Port makes a great lunch spot as its many restaurants are based around the old fishing port and their menus are reliant on the catch of the day.

A complete circuit of the Cap Corse will take you about four hours from St Florent (without stops) and we recommend that you always drive in a clockwise direction so that you are always in the inside lane (the road can be narrow and winding and the drops are precipitous).
