Walk to Occi
Walk to the abandoned village of Occi, an hour's circular walk from Lumio village. The village was deserted when the water dried up but the view from the top is amazing and the spot very atmospheric.
Strada di l'Artigiani
The fortress villages of the Haute-Balagne perched high above the sea and surrounded by terraces that produced olives, wine and figs together with plentiful citrus groves are some of the most picturesque on the island. Backed by the dramatic mountain landscapes, many of the villages are nearly a thousand years old. Follow the Strada di L’Artigiani, the Artisans route; a craft trail where you can visit workshops and buy the wares of the local artists.
Arinella Plage
The beach at Arinella (Lumio) is coarse sand so not ideal for sandcastles (for that go to Calvi) but the view across the bay to Calvi is superb. Ideal for paddling with a few rocks creating sheltered areas. You may even see the Foreign Legion parachute over the Bay
