Heart of St Florent
The bustling heart St Florent is the old town, with its narrow streets and vibrant bar terraces. Relax in one of the waterfront cafés and watch the yachts of the rich arrive at the marina. The ambience on the port of an evening is not to be missed. Just watch the rich people and marvel at their luxurious yachts – a true pleasure seeker's paradise. Park on the port or in the Citadel.
Patrimonio Vineyards
Spend a leisurely afternoon visiting a vineyard in the pretty village of Patrimonio, and tasting the superb wines. The Patrimonio region is most famous for its vineyards, much of Corsica’s best wine being produced in this area. There is now a ‘route des vins’, which will lead you to all the vineyards. Just follow the brown road signs.
Desert des Agriates
The Désert des Agriates is a landscape of wild maquis and rocky cliffs. Take a boat trip to one of its beaches, inaccessible by car, or rent a boat yourself to explore the hidden coastline around the town. Boats from the harbour will take you to the beaches of Saleccia and Lodo (3-6 departures a day and a 30 min trip). You can also get to these beaches on quad bikes (see activities section) that can be hired locally or for the more adventurous try kayaking. The spectacular beach of Saleccia is a tropical dream of silver sand and turquoise sea, inaccessible by road.
Steep Driveway
If you don't want the hassle of reversing up or down the steep drive, then just leave you car at the bottom of the driveway; at least you'll benefit from the exercise.
Pool lights
There are light switches for the pool and surrounding area hidden behind the BBQ… well worth switching on to create a nice ambience.
