There are dancers, musicians, archers, fencers, troubadours, and flag throwers, while the citadel of Bastia is cloaked in light. If you appreciate music, Nuits de la Guitare in Patrimonio features masters of guitar playing music from the world of jazz, blues and rock.

Along with beautiful sandy shores and turquoise waters, their sheltered bays provide calm waves for swimming. Along the coast of the Gulf of Porto, you will find a UNESCO World Heritage Site of sculpted red rocks jutting dramatically out of the sea, with the jagged peaks of Paglia Orba in the background. Explorable on foot or by boat, Scandola Nature Reserve can also be explored underwater, with marine life like dolphins, seals, swordfish and corals.
