Sagone: Scandola Reserve & Girolata Boat Tour with Snorkel｜France

Depart from the port of Sagone aboard a comfortable 12-passenger rigid inflatable boat (RIB) and set off to discover some of Corsica’s most spectacular coastal scenery. This small-group sea excursion combines safety, speed, and close-up views of the island’s wild west coast.

Your cruise begins with a panoramic pass by Cargèse, followed by views of the Omigna Genoese tower. Continue along the shoreline to the famous Calanques of Piana, where rugged red cliffs meet the sea—ideal for photos and wildlife spotting. From there, enjoy sweeping vistas over the Gulf of Porto as you head toward the remote port of Girolata.

In Girolata, take time for a short walk and a coffee break before continuing to the Scandola Nature Reserve, a protected UNESCO World Heritage site. Your skipper shares insights about the reserve’s preserved landscapes and the fauna and flora protected by the Corsica Natural Park, with photo stops along the way.

To round out the experience, stop for a swim in turquoise water. Masks and snorkels are provided so you can explore below the surface before returning by boat to Sagone—bringing home unforgettable coastal views and sea-air memories.
