Your programm in 14 days: the full loop of the island — a circle of salt, wind, and silence, starting from Ajaccio.

Day 1 - departure for the sailing around Corsica — Ajaccio → Cacalu
You leave the port, sails full, and already the world drifts away. First evening, first anchorage: white sand, twisted pines, golden light. Silence. You’ve set off.
Day 2 — Cacalu → Roccapina
The coast deepens, becomes wilder. The lion of Roccapina watches over your night.You drop anchor in a turquoise cove, alone in the world. The water is warm crystal.
Day 3 — Roccapina → Bonifacio
You glide southward. The wind rises. The strait of Bonifacio opens like a stage set.Moored between sky and cliffs, you sip a drink and watch the gulls dance in the currents.
Day 4 — Bonifacio → Lavezzi Islands
You head offshore, anchoring in a maze of round rocks and crazy lagoons.Mask, fins, underwater silence. Night slowly falls over pink granite.
Day 5 — Lavezzi → Rondinara or Santa Giulia
The morning is silver. You sail between sandbanks and seagrass meadows.The bay of Rondinara welcomes you like a cocoon. You sleep like stones.
Day 6 — Rondinara → Porto-Vecchio → Pinarellu
A short stop to resupply or wander Porto-Vecchio, then quickly back to calm.Pinarellu, its beach, its Genoese tower. A chilled glass of white wine. You are at peace.
Day 7 — Pinarellu → Solenzara or Fautea
You follow a quieter, lesser-known coast.The anchor sinks into oblivion, and the sea stays warm until late.
Day 8 — East Coast → Aléria → Diane’s Lagoon
The land flattens, the mountains fade. Diane’s lagoon whispers legends of oysters and wine.Time suspends itself. You listen to Corsica breathe.
Day 9 — East Coast → Cap Corse East (Macinaggio)
The wind shifts. Cap Corse appears — thin and untamed.You shelter in Macinaggio, a haven of sailors and waiting. Tomorrow, you’ll round the Cape.
Day 10 — Cap Corse → Centuri or Nonza
You round the finger of Corsica, facing the open sea, facing the wind.It’s rougher here. You love that.You find refuge in a tiny port, or in front of a black beach full of mystery.
Day 11 — Cap Corse → Saint-Florent
You sail down again, exhilarated. Saint-Florent is a graceful stop.The citadel watches over you, and the Patrimonio wine invites you to linger.
Day 12 — Saint-Florent → Calvi
You brush past the Agriates desert reserve, then set course for Calvi.The citadel rises, proud above the masts.The night is soft, festive, but always open to the immensity of the sea.
Day 13 — Calvi → Girolata
You dive into the island’s wildest coast. Capu Rossu, Scandola, red cliffs.Then Girolata, the haven. No roads, no noise. The world falls silent again.
Day 14 - End of your catamaran cruise — Girolata → Ajaccio
Last leg. You sail past forgotten coves, immense capes.Ajaccio returns, quietly.You come back — but you are no longer the same.
