The Lavezzi Archipelago is a chain of small granite islands that grace the Mediterranean coast between Corsica and Sardinia. Within the archipelago, the island of Cavallo is large enough that it is inhabited, which conveniently provides facilities for the steady stream of visitors, while the other islands add to the unique appeal.
The archipelago region is protected as a nature reserve, which will allow visitors to enjoy the sprawl of granite islands for years to come. For as beautiful as the landscape is above the water, the seascape is equally enchanting and awaits discovery by the next lucky traveller.
What are the highlights of Lavezzi Archipelago in Corsica?
The Lavezzi Archipelago is only accessible by boat, which is the best possible scenario because you can get up close and personal to the biodiverse outcroppings and uniqueness of each of the 8 islands. With a boat hire, you can cruise up to the rocky shores to hike across one of the islands, or dip underneath the water to explore the vibrant marine life.
In addition to enjoying the archipelago by boat, you can visit the island of Cavallo to stop and spend your day lounging on the shore soaking up the sun or dining in one of the quaint restaurants.
What else is good to know about Lavezzi Archipelago in Corsica?
Among the islands of the Lavezzi Archipelago, the primary island of Cavallo is the only one that is occupied year-round and is like other French coastal towns with bicycle hires, beaches, restaurants, shops and a hotel. If you plan to hike around Cavallo or one of the other larger islands, keep your eyes open for Neolithic rocks as you traverse across millennia of history.
To reach the archipelago, you’ll find boat tours and boat hires from all the surrounding towns, but primarily from the port of Bonifacio. Many visitors recommend that you hire a boat to have the freedom to sail around to more secluded regions and the famous Sémillante shipwreck.
