Pietra Creek in L'Ile-Rousse - France
Information on the Pietra Creek in L'Ile-Rousse (France)
Description and location of the Pietra Creek in L'Ile-Rousse (20220)
Our opinion on the Pietra Creek
There is a small pebble cove with less attendance at the foot of the Pietra lighthouse on the island of the same name (peninsula after the port of Ile Rousse). Located in a depression of the peninsula, the sea is remarkable and far from the crowded beaches of the city centre. There are smooth rocks used by sunbathers opposite this creek.
To get to the beach from the centre of Ile Rousse, take the direction of the port and drive towards the lighthouse. There is free car park on the left, in the peninsula opposite a hotel. Keep walking towards the lighthouse (a 10-minute walk). There are sloping trails to the creek after the tower on the left.

Photos of the Pietra Creek
There is a small pebble cove at the foot of the Pietra lighthouse. It is little known and mostly frequented by the locals.
There are smooth rocks used for sunbathing like the previous cove. This is a nice view of Piana Island.
This cove is accessible on the way to the lighthouse. There are trails on the right leading to the creek (steep in places).
