Sailing into Bonifacio on the French Island of Corsica (Video 34) - Sailing Britican
After a six-hour sail/motor from the Italian island of Sardinia, we eventually reached the lovely sandstone cliffs of southern Corsica. The entrance to Bonifacio is one of those that you can’t easily spot by the naked eye. You have to rely on maps or your plotter to find the green and red channel markers. And once you find them, you’re led into a narrow cavern with cliffs reaching high on either side. Go over to SailingBritican.com to read the full details of entering and staying at Bonifacio, Corsica - I offer tips and other important information not covered in the video.

Here's an excerpt from the article on Bonifacio that I published on my website:
While sailing around the Mediterranean, my husband and I often rely on word-of-mouth recommendations for everything.
And ‘everything’ includes anchorages, restaurants, grocery stores, chandleries, things to do, marinas and even sailing passages. Some people resort to bloggers or Trip Advisor, others survey the Internet but we go on our latest neighbors for recommendation.
Often, our neighbor at an anchorage is someone that we’ve only known only hours!
But we get our information from contacts that have recently been places and seen things that we’ve yet to see. Sometimes…err, I’d say most times, it works in a perfect fashion.
Yes, it can be a bit unsettling because I never know where we’ll be from one day to the next. And taking advice from someone we don’t know is a bit different from the way we did things in the past, but it’s also exciting, very spontaneous and mostly offers exceptional results.
Our decision to leave Sardinia (Italian Island) and head for Bonifacio, Corsica (French Island), was based on the recommendation of two of our neighbors we met while anchored in Portisco, Sardinia.
Ken from sailing vessel Orinoco and the family from Crackerjack both highly recommended Bonifacio so prior to heading west we decided to sail North to the French island of Corsica.

When we left Sardinia, we sailed past boats in the Perini Navi Cup. It was amazing to see the USA boat Comanche (Link will open the Facebook page). Simon counted 21 crew and I videoed them gracefully sailing along. From our viewpoint it looked as if no effort was being used to speed along. Here’s a link the the video I posted on Facebook while Comanche passed us: Comanche Video
It wasn’t long before we pulled down our Italian flag and raised the French flag.
Bonifacio Corsica
It was the first time that Britican flew the French courtesy flag!
After a six-hour sail/motor we eventually reached the lovely sandstone cliffs of southern Corsica. The entrance to Bonifacio is one of those that you can’t easily spot by the naked eye. You have to rely on maps or your plotter to find the green and red channel markers. And once you find them, you’re led into a narrow cavern with cliffs reaching high on either side.
Bonifacio Corsica
BIG TIP: Get the boat ready before you enter the channel. In other words, fasten your stern warps (ropes at the back of the boat) and get your fenders tied on and ready to moor before entering the channel. By doing so you’ll be able to sit back and absorb the beautiful scenery of sandstone cliffs, historical architecture, amazing boats and the lower town of Bonifacio.
Upon arrival to the entrance of the marina we called the marina three or four times without response.
Eventually, someone responded and a dinghy met with us to show us our spot. We did call in advance and reserve a spot but I imagine it’s a first come, first serve spot in the summer.
Fortunate for us, we visited the very popular port in September when the season was starting to die down.

BONIFACIO - Corse du Sud | France (Bonifacio Corsica)
Bonifacio - Corse du Sud | France. Bonifacio est une ville située à la pointe sud de la Corse en France. Elle est connue pour son port de plaisance animé et sa citadelle médiévale perchée sur une falaise. Le bastion de l'Étendard datant du XIIIe siècle abrite un petit musée qui retrace l'histoire de la ville. L'escalier du roi d'Aragon, haut de 187 marches, a été taillé dans la falaise. Situées au sud-est de la Corse, les îles inhabitées de Lavezzi forment une réserve naturelle, avec leurs rochers en granite et leurs plages de sable. Elle constitue après Porto-Vecchio la deuxième agglomération du Freto, microrégion s'étendant depuis Bonifacio jusqu'à Conca au nord et Monacia-d'Aullène à l'ouest en passant par Figari et son aéroport.

Sailing into Bonifacio Harbor
On vacation in May 2007, our sailboat entered Bonifacio, Corsica early in the morning. Bonifacio is France's southernmost city on the island of Corsica and is a harbor large cruise ships cannot enter. It was incredibly dramatic and beautiful. The video doesn't do it justice.

Les îles Lavezzi sont un archipel d'îlots et de récifs granitiques situé à 10 kilomètres au sud-est de Bonifacio, en Corse-du-Sud.
L'archipel des Lavezzi, d'une superficie émergée d'environ 200 hectares[réf. nécessaire] et d'une altitude maximale de 39 mètres, se situe dans les bouches de Bonifacio. C'est l'un des endroits les plus dangereux de la Méditerranée pour la navigation, à cause du grand nombre de récifs dans un détroit de faible largeur parcouru par de forts courants.
L'archipel comprend, du nord au sud :
L'île Porraggia
L'île Ratino
L'île Piana
Les îles Sperduto et l'écueil de Sperduto, le plus à l'est de l'archipel
(41° 21′ 54″ N 9° 18′ 58″ E)
L'île de Cavallo, la seule à être habitée, avec ses deux îlots : San Baïnso et Camaro Canto
L'île Lavezzo, sur laquelle se situe le phare construit dès 18741.
Le point émergé le plus au sud de la France métropolitaine est l'écueil de Lavezzi (41° 19′ 01″ N 9° 15′ 13″ E)

Knock knock.. who’s there? Bonifacio. (Sailing La Vagabonde) Ep. 107
:)
We sail the south western coast of Corsica to two really, really funny places. Ajaccio and Bonifacio. Ahhhh you’ve gotta love those days where things go right and you’re nothing but smiles and knock knock jokes. We have loved just about everything about exploring this coastline, from the history and people to the aqua blue water and interestingly texturised cliff walls. SAILING THE MEDITERRANEAN IS PURE BLISS.
