Bonifacio is a star attraction in Corsica, drawing visitors from all over the island and overseas to marvel at its medieval houses precariously teetering on the edge of the imposing limestone cliffs. Bonifacio's Old Town, with a labyrinth of narrow streets and historic buildings, was built by the Genoese and is a fascinating place to wander around.

The fine white sandy beaches of Southern Corsica are a must for any beach lover with the tranquil azure waters ideally suited to swimming, snorkeling and diving. The more energetic can make use of the consistent winds at the tip of the island that attract windsurfers and kite surfers alike.

Boat trips from the marina are very popular and destinations include the wild nature reserve islands of Lavezzi (with great snorkelling), the stylish town of Porto-Vecchio or the Italian island of Sardinia. Day trips inland can easily incorporate mountain walks in the breathtaking peaks of the Alta Rocca, visits to traditional Corsican mountain villages and towns, or exploring the prehistoric sites at Pianu di Levie.
