What you can expect

Embark with the oldest familial company of the Gulf of Porto. Discover the Scandola Reserve on a boat tour by RIB boat and unwind from the bustle of the city surrounded by nature.

Meet your pilot and come aboard a 12-seater RIB boat from the port of Cargèse. Start the tour in the direction of the Pointe d'Omigna to see the beautiful Genoese Tower, made of granite with feldspar crystals and its rocky surroundings, before heading to the remarkable Arone Beach.

Visit the caves of Capo Rosso and the characteristic red rocky coves of the Island of Beauty. Pass trough the Arch of Capo Rosso and enjoy the colours of the turquoise water of the bay of monk seals.

Continue to the Gulf of Porto, where you will explore the Scandola reserve, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Listen to the interesting comments on the local fauna and flora and don't hesitate to take picture when you see an animal, like the fish eagle, symbol of the Reserve of Scandola, dolphin or trouper.

On the way, make a short 30-minute break in Girolata. There, feel the atmosphere of this tiny village of fishermen, accessible only by a footpath or by boat. Take a swim from the beach or walk towards the renovated fort above the village.

Back on the boat, you will pass Capo Senio and head towards the famous Calanques de Piana before returning to the port of Cargèse.
