Overview
Admire the dramatic red porphyry cliffs of the Scandola Nature Reserve, Corsica’s only UNESCO World Heritage Site, which can only be seen from the water. Cruising the coast on a small rigid inflatable boat lets you get closer to the sea cliffs than larger boats, passing through sea caves and arches for even more spectacular views. Along the way, look out for seabirds, and stop to swim and snorkel in the Mediterranean.

To do!
TLK91, May 2026
We took a 1.5-hour boat trip, with a very nice and competent guide, a short swimming stop, and a return at a slightly faster pace to ventilate the two engines... Breathtaking view of Calvi!
Great excursion! We're taking a lot of eyes, Beautiful reserve. Too bad that on the return

Excellent half day in the reserve of Scandola and the coves of Piana. Serious company. On time. Respectful of the rules of the natural park and nature, we appreciate it. Very nice circuit, our sailor-driver-guide took the time and approached as close as possible to curiosities. I was able to swim. We are delighted.
Itinerary
Nature Reserve of Scandola
Embark with our Captain to discover all the secrets of the reserve. This unique natural site in the world, highly protected, offers biodiversity and breathtaking landscapes. Made up of volcanic rocks rising from the sea, it is accessible only by boat. The sea and wind have sculpted the landscape, giving the rocks shapes with supernatural looks. We will sail as close to the coast as possible to admire the goats perched on the rocks, golden eagles, and many other species. We may be lucky enough to meet an osprey, an emblem of the reserve's wildlife.
Our Captain will introduce you to the majestic flaws and their secrets. We will continue to the island of Gargalo with its Genoa tower. On the way back, you can enjoy the turquoise waters and observe the beauty of our seabed for a swim break.
During the day, cold drinks will be offered.
