Port Bonifacio

  • Private port
  • Corsica, France

Port Bonifacio, also known as Capitaneria Port de Plaisance Bonifacio or Port de Bonifacio is located in the village with the same name, on the island of Corsia, in the department of Corse-du-Sud. It is the largest commune in Corsica and one of the most wonderful places on this side of the coast, that were designed by Mother Nature itself. It is bordered by Figari and Porto-Vecchio and it represents a major tourist attraction all year round. The ancient cave of Araguina-Sennola and the chambered tomb of Vasculacciu are two of the archaeological evidence that prove previous’ civilisations existence. Tourists will be fascinated by these sights, as well as by the Citadel of Bonifacio, which is a historical masterpiece. Fantastic, steep cliffs and clifftop buildings can be seen from off-shore and visitors who are passionate about history will be delighted by the two Genoese towers in the area. This idyllic spot on the Mediterranean coastline must be explored in detail.
