Departure for the Iles Sanguinaires.(navigation 1h30).
Historically, they're known as the Sanguinaires, not for their red color at sunset, but because makeshift settlements housed coral fishermen nicknamed "sanguinari" (black-blooded people), returning from quarantine in Africa.
Characterized by their austere, hostile appearance, they are a listed maritime site, a haven of peace for seabird species and a reserve for a rich flora of rare, endemic species.
The walk is pleasant, the relief rugged, an impression reinforced by the color of the rock... At the tip of the island, don't miss the incomparable view of the Gulf of Ajaccio...
At the end of the day, continue to Cargèse (2h sailing), a picturesque fishing and yachting port. This village is a pleasant seaside resort with a Mediterranean atmosphere.
Cargèse was founded by the Greeks, which is why it is the only village in Corsica to have the distinction of having 2 churches facing each other, one Catholic and the other Orthodox.
Dinner and overnight at anchor.

Departure for the Calanques de Piana, one of Corsica's most extraordinary sites. They offer a breathtakingly beautiful panorama of the Gulf of Porto.
In the evening, we call at Girolata, with its eucalyptus trees, Genoese fortress, turquoise bay, staircase houses and mountainous surroundings. Girolata is particularly protected by the absence of roads. The village can only be reached by sea, or by a footpath that links up with the GR20.
Dinner and overnight at anchor or alongside the quay.

Discover the Scandola Reserve. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is one of France's Protected Marine Areas. This sanctuary for flora and fauna is virtually inaccessible, and can only be approached by sea. It's home to many endemic and protected seabirds and plants.
You can then enjoy a pleasant swim at the edge of the reserve, before lunching in idyllic surroundings north of Marina d'Elbo or in Galéria, a small fishing port. In the evening, you'll call at Calvi, located at the north-western tip of the island, in a beautiful setting.
Dinner and overnight at anchor or alongside the quay.

Today, the Captain will take you to Ile Rousse. You'll discover the north-west of the island, the perfect place to relax.
Its seaside resorts and numerous beaches border the surrounding mountain scrub and small villages perched on promontories.
You'll end the day either in the Bay of Acciolu (1hr 30min sailing) to see the Agriates Desert, a vast expanse of ridges, valleys and rocky peaks facing the sea and Cap Corse, or at Saleccia beach, a true marvel with its crystal-clear water and long strip of white sand.
Dinner and overnight at anchor.

Sail to Revellata, an outcrop of land south of Calvi, offering a taste of the wilderness so characteristic of the Balagne region. Here you'll find numerous coves and paths. Enjoy the delicious water, or take a pleasant stroll along the paths. Then stop off at Palo, south of Capo Rosso, a Unesco World Heritage site topped by the Turghiu Genoese Tower.
Dinner and overnight at anchor.

Discover Figuera, south of the Gulf of Sagone, with its long white sandy beaches.
At the end of the day, sail to Ajaccio.
Dinner and overnight on board, at anchor or alongside the quay for a night stroll through the streets. Why not take the opportunity to discover the charm of the old town?
