4 Frustrating

Remember to take a receipt when you pay at the beach restaurant. Today they fooled me. I paid 26 euros as I ordered food at bar. Later they didn’t know anything about that payment and requested new payment.

If you're staying nearby, the beach is convenient, but it's better to move on if you have a car. There's quite a bit of seaweed around, which can be a little unpleasant.

This beach is great for families, although there isn't any sand and the water has dry algae. The water is shallow, and there are inflatable structures on the water for young people to enjoy. The beach is supervised, ensuring everyone's safety.

Avoid this beach at all costs, it's the worst one on Korsica. 👎

The beach is quite windy and is ideal for kids who want to learn to sail. The bar/restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere and offers chairs for 10 euros. The water is fantastic, but you need to get past the sea kelp to enjoy it.
