Excursion Boat tour of bonifacio coastline & lavezzi islands – a scenic journey through corsica’s natural beauty tour at Bonifacio

Cruise line: Silversea
Difficulty:

Embark on a captivating boat tour along the extraordinary coastline of Bonifacio, one of Corsica’s most picturesque and historic towns. This excursion offers a unique perspective of Bonifacio’s citadel and upper town, where buildings dramatically cling to chalky cliffs, seemingly on the edge of falling into the sea. As you cruise along the coast, you’ll be treated to unforgettable views of the town from the water, highlighting the beauty of its medieval architecture against the striking backdrop of rugged cliffs and deep blue waters.

Board the motor boat and sail out through the narrow Goulet harbor entrance, where you’ll witness the dramatic meeting of the sea and the cliffs. Glide past deep rocky inlets, their clear, aquamarine waters creating a striking contrast with the stark landscape, perfect for photos and appreciation of Corsica's raw beauty. As you continue your journey, you’ll reach the Lavezzi Islands, the heart of an uninhabited archipelago located 10 km southeast of Bonifacio. These granite islands, shaped by the elements over millennia, are a protected area known for their natural, unspoiled beauty. The islands, which give the entire archipelago its name, are rich in marine life and offer stunning vistas, though we do not make a stop to preserve the site and its ecological importance.

This boat tour is the perfect way to experience Bonifacio’s majestic cliffs, the charm of its ancient town, and the wild beauty of the Lavezzi Islands, all while cruising through one of the most pristine, scenic areas of Corsica. Whether you are a history enthusiast, nature lover, or simply looking to admire Corsica’s stunning coastal beauty, this excursion promises to leave you with lasting memories.
