Beaches in San-Nicolao (20231) France - advise, map and photos

San Nicolao, located in the department of Haute-Corse about forty kilometres from Bastia, is famous for its parish church classified as historic monuments but also for Moriani-Plage, its seaside district with one of the largest sandy beach of the island.

At the foot of Castagniccia, 10 kilometres from the terraced village composed of several hamlets, the beach offers many activities and is the starting point of several great hiking trails, including Mare a Mare Nord, which connects it to Cargèse. Tourists in search of freshness are sure to reach the waterfall of Ucelluline, between the village of Poghju and the hamlet of Fano, natural basins of clean water where one can swim and try canyoning and climbing. The best view is probably that of Scupiccia, it takes 45 minutes on foot before one can enjoy this little paradise, visit the small chapel overlooking the whole area and take time to taste some Corsican specialties!

One can discover all the riches of Costa Verde, from the authentic villages of the hinterland to the ferruginous gas spring of Acqua Acitosa by taking the Corniche Road!
