Day at Scandola and Calanques de Piana in a small group
Overview
Choose to go for a trip with our small Corsican family company and embark for a magnificent day aboard a comfortable, elegant and powerful semi-rigid boat. In the company of a friendly and warm guide, you will discover the wonderful richness of Corsican heritage. You will enjoy a privileged visit to the smallest caves of Capo Rosso and the coves of Piana in a small group (12 maximum on board). You will be amazed by this wild nature of multiple colors as you enter the Scandola Reserve. You will be under the spell of unspoiled nature as you navigate as close as possible to the rocks and slip through the rocky faults. You can then enjoy a nice 2-hour break at lunchtime in the village of Girolata. There, you can choose to enjoy the shaded terraces of the restaurants or the warm sand of the beach for a picnic or a swim. (Meals not included).
Come live and feel Corsica with us!
