La Réserve naturelle de Scandola se situe au coeur de la façade maritime du Parc naturel régional de Corse, s'étendant sur 80 kilomètres, de la presqu'île de Capo Rosso jusqu'à la limite nord de la commune de Galéria. le naturel à la fois terrestre et marin .Depuis 1982, elle appartient au Réseau des aires marines et côtières spécialement protégées de la Méditerranée. Sa gestion exemplaire lui a valu le diplôme de la catégorie A des Réserves naturelles européennes décerné en 1985 par le Conseil de l'Europe, diplôme renouvelé en 1990 et en 1995.On y recense plus de 450 espèces d'algues. Pour certaines,la Corse constitue la seule zone de prédilection méditerranéenne. Côté vertébrés, 125 espèces ont été inventoriées dont l'abondance est remarquable, en particulier pour celles devenues rares dans la Grande Bleue : le mérou , la badêche,le denti ou encore le corb La presqu'île du bout du monde.Il y a peu, Girolata n'avait ni électricité ni téléphone. Le facteur était l'unique lien avec le paysAujourd'hui encore, aucune route n'arrive jusqu'à ce village de pêcheurs.
Ici, l'île a gardé sa saveur sauvage.Le vert du maquis se mêle au bleu de l'eau.
Il nous vient alors à l'esprit qu'une telle splendeur contient en elle un zeste de miracle.

The nature reserve, which is part of the Regional Natural Park of Corsica, occupies the Scandola peninsula, an impressive, porphyritic rock mass. The vegetation is an outstanding example of scrubland. Seagulls, cormorants and sea eagles can be found there. The clear waters, with their islets and inaccessible caves, host a rich marine life.

RISERVA NATURALE DI SCANDOLA - CORSICA - 4K
La Riserva naturale di Scandola (in francese: Réserve naturelle de Scandola) fa parte del Parco naturale regionale della Corsica: venne istituita nel 1975 su di un'area di quasi 20 chilometri quadrati, metà in mare e metà sulla terraferma, e si trova nella parte centro-occidentale dell'isola francese della Corsica. Essa è stata la prima riserva naturale europea ad avere una parte protetta sul mare e una parte sulla terra; nel 1983 è stata inserita nell'elenco dei Patrimoni dell'umanità dell'UNESCO, insieme ai calanchi di Piana e al golfo di Girolata.
Dal 1985 è insignita del Diploma europeo delle aree protette.
La riserva naturale è composta da due settori: l'isoletta di Elpa Nera e la penisola di Scandola. Le pendici a strapiombo sul mare, alte anche 900 metri, contengono numerose grotte e sono affiancate da molte isolette e baie pressoché inaccessibili, come quella di Tuara.

Self-supported 360km Sea Kayaking around Corsica - Part 1
This video is the first part of a 12 day sea kayaking trip around the French island of Corsica in May and June of 2016. PART 1: We started in Bastia, went up North, circumnavigated the Cape Corse and went down South past Saint Florent. We fought rough seas and strong winds. It was two of us. PART 2: We continued down South along the Western coast of the island until we reached Ajaccio, our final destination. We weather and the sea couldn't have been better to beauty and sea caves of the coast and the Nature Reserve of Scandola. It was three of us.

Places to see in ( Corsica - France ) Porto
Places to see in ( Corsica - France ) Porto
Porto is a small village to the west of Corsica, ideally placed for exploring many of the highlights of this dramatically beautiful region of Corsica, with local highlights such as the Scandola Nature Reserve, the Calanches de Piana, the Gorges de Spelunca and the Foret d'Aitone. Indeed this region of Corsica is of such great beauty and interest that it has been designated a UNESCO World heritage Site.
Porto barely existed 50 years ago and has done its best to cater to the ever increasing numbers of tourists that are drawn to this part of Corsica, but in summer the roads and town can be very congested. It gets a bit of a bad rap from some tourist guides but we loved it.
The Calanches and the coastline here in the Porto area was our favourite area of Corsica. The calanches are absolutely breathtaking. Porto itself we found had a nice atmosphere, when we visited in May it was lively but not too much so and had a great selection of bars and restaurants.
Porto Marina, which is where the action is, runs along the edge of a river with a backdrop of tree covered mountains and many of the hotels and appartments in Porto look out over these. As you get to the end of the road the vista opens out to views of the sea and the watchtower on the rock above.
The watchtower is the only real site of historical interest in Porto and was built in the 16th century. You can visit it for a couple of euros which is well worth doing for the magnificent views that it provides from its dramatic location on top of the red cliffs. There is a small museum in the tower too.
The marina is the centre of life in this well placed Corsica resort, and from here you can discover the watchtower and town beach. This is also where you go if you want to go on one of the many boat excursions that leave from Porto and take you either to get a sea view of the Calanches or to the stunning Scandola Nature Reserve.
Be sure to drive south along the corniche road to the little village of Piana. Piana is listed as a most beautiful village but really it is seeing the Calanches that is the goal. This is reputed to be one of the most beautiful stretches of road in all of Europe and rightly so. It really is magnificent. Stop at the rock called the 'Tete de Chien' which really does look like the head of a dog and there is a very pretty walk on one of the Calanche paths from here. Another couple of walks leave from the nearby cafe. All are wonderful to do.
Driving north along the D81 and the calanche road gives you splendid views over the crimson Calanche. This is also the road you need to take to get to the better beaches in the area. The first you come to, after 5km, is the Plage de Bussaglia. Another few kilometers brings you to the Plage de Caspio and then 10km further, take the turning to Osani and then continue to the Plage de Gradelle - the best beach in the area.
