Plage de l'Ostriconi is one of the top beaches in northern Corsica, and it is easy to see why. With soft sand, convenient parking, breathtaking views and an overall atmosphere of seclusion and tranquillity, this beach should be on most travellers’ shortlists of what to see and do in Corsica.
The walk to the beach from the car park is part of the charm because it’s off the beaten path and not surrounded by city noise. Then, as you emerge from the coastal woods, you are greeted by the beauty of the rocky coastal hills and aquamarine shore.
What are the highlights of Plage de l'Ostriconi in Corsica?
Plage de l'Ostriconi is off the beaten path, which is one of the most alluring aspects of this secluded beach. The sand on the beach is natural and soft, so you can lie comfortably on a beach towel without the need to bring too many chairs since there is a 15-minute walk from the car park.
Snorkelling is a great activity in Plage de l'Ostriconi because there are plenty of areas with rocky outcroppings in shallow water that are home to a multitude of fish and water flora. If you hire a boat from a nearby town, you will have even more picturesque views of the coastline or opportunities to snorkel or scuba dive.
What else is good to know about Plage de l'Ostriconi in Corsica?
Plage de l'Ostriconi does not have its own facilities and there is virtually no shade because the beachfront is a combination of sand and rocks, so you want to make sure you come prepared with an umbrella and whatever beach accessories you enjoy. There are lifeguards on duty.
The beach is situated not far from L’Ile Rousse, which means that you could hire a car or bicycle to reach the car park, where you are only permitted to walk or hike from that point. The beachfront is not accessible and the unpaved path requires wading through some shallow water.
