Porto

The UNESCO gulf of red porphyry and the Calanche de Piana.

— Journey —

2 h from Ajaccio

The Gulf of Porto is one of Corsica's three UNESCO World Heritage sites — a coastline of red porphyry cliffs plunging into the sea, the Calanche de Piana sculpted into fantastical rock forms, and the Scandola nature reserve accessible only by boat. FFGR Corsica chauffeurs the dramatic D81 corniche from Ajaccio, timing arrival for the late afternoon when the rock glows incandescent. We arrange private boat charters into Scandola and the Girolata cove, walks through the Calanche at golden hour, and dinner at the village restaurants of Piana, perched above the gulf. Few drives in Europe rival the descent into Porto as the sun sets over the Mediterranean.
