A destination of rare beauty and also farfrom the madding crowds, Porto-Vecchio, a port town on the French island of Corsica, is a superb choice.
A destination of rare beauty and also farfrom the madding crowds, Porto-Vecchio, a port town on the French island of Corsica, is a superb choice. With a 16th century Genoese citadel as the backdrop to the old town and with views over the yacht-filled marina, shops, bars and restaurants, it also has some of the most beautiful beaches in France, including Santa Giulia and its crystal-clear waters and fine white sand of Palombaggia and its umbrella pines to rest in the shade under their sweet scent.
