Bastia and Cap Corse: A unique setting between sea and mountains

Nestled between sea and mountains, Bastia is a city of Mediterranean charm, seductive by its authenticity and dynamism. Its historic center, with the Old Port, Place Saint-Nicolas and the Terra Nova citadel, offers a real journey back in time, where cobbled streets rub shoulders with the colorful facades typical of Corsica. Culture lovers will appreciate the Bastia Museum, housed in the former Governors’ Palace, while nature lovers can enjoy the paths leading to the Romieu Garden or the crystal-clear beaches of Arinella. Bastia is also a lively city all year round, with its markets, cultural events and proximity to unspoilt natural areas.

Stretching north from Bastia, Cap Corse is a wild and unspoilt land that fascinates with its authenticity. This craggy stretch of land, often dubbed the “island within an island”, is a succession of picturesque villages perched in the mountains or nestling on the seafront, such as Nonza, with its black pebble beach, Centuri, renowned for its port and lobster fishing, or Rogliano, offering exceptional panoramic views. Cap Corse is a paradise for hikers, with the famous Sentier des Douaniers, which runs along the coast between Macinaggio and Barcaggio, offering breathtaking scenery. Between swimming in secret coves, discovering the heritage of the Genoese towers and tasting local specialties such as Cap Corse Muscat, the region offers total immersion in the Corsican soul.

The Bastia and Cap Corse region offers an exceptional setting and sublime landscapes combining tradition and modernity. Bastia’s economic and cultural dynamism is matched by its direct access to unspoilt nature. Its port ensures fast connections with the mainland, and its airport facilitates international travel. Cap Corse, meanwhile, attracts those in search of authenticity and tranquility, with an unspoilt setting far from the hustle and bustle of large conurbations.
