Beautiful and breezy pitch by the sea, with numerous shaded spaces. Well-maintained and clean campsite, simple but clean facilities. Friendly and helpful staff.Translating
Excellent pitch with an exceptional sea view. However, the facilities are run-down; €54 for a van and two children is a little expensive, and payment is exclusively in cash!Translating
One of the most beautiful places in Corsica—choose your own pitch, no reservations, bakery service. The first beach is rocky, but if you walk to the right facing the sea, there is a wonderful sandy beach. We would gladly return anytime.Translating
A must for anyone who wants to enjoy a sunset in the front row. The campsite is well maintained, the sanitary facilities are old but clean, with hot water and electricity available. The owner couple are very friendly, and the fresh wood-fired pizza is excellent. The only drawbacks are that you pay in cash (though you can have it written down) and the beach is somewhat neglected. This is due to leaves, not rubbish. We will return.Translating
Very friendly welcome. Pitch directly by the sea. Facilities outdated but clean! We would come again.Translating
Pitches directly by the sea. Everyone is very nice. Facilities are basic and practical but clean. Great pizza!Translating
The camp is very old and you can only pay by cash. The view is amazing for sunset, as the spots are right next to the beach. The beach itself for swimming isn’t really that nice (big rocks and sea grass).
The place is not very shaded, very close to the water and somewhat crowded, with few spaces for many people, but the night was very quiet and the atmosphere relaxing.Translating
Fantastic campsite with a first row on the rocky beach, see photo. More pitches are available farther back. In the morning, people leave and move forward into the first row. Facilities are old but always clean. Very friendly, uncomplicated welcome. Pizza available in season. Bread for breakfast can always be ordered and is really good. Two supermarkets nearby.Translating
I stayed right by the sea. Wonderful sunsets. Facilities are older but fine.Translating
We are here at the beginning of July and are lined up one after another down by the beach. It is what it is. Otherwise, the site is empty. Everyone is friendly here, just as I am. It is a 20-minute walk to the Lambada restaurant. We found it very, very pleasant for one day/night at the campsite. Have fun here, and elsewhere too. Safe travels and get well soon.Translating
Perfect and beautiful; there are also hikes from here, for example to a monastery ruin.Translating
Nice facilities. Worth stopping; we stayed in the first row.Translating
An unforgettable sunset!!!!Translating
Beautiful spot. Park your camper directly by the sea and jump into the water. Wonderful, enjoy.Translating
A dream spot: motorhome on the meadow directly by the beach. Wonderful sunset. See the other comments regarding the facilities. When the site is really full, the pitches are very narrow. At the end of April it was officially still closed, but we were allowed to stay. Special price.Translating
Too expensive, restaurant closed on 30 October, cold welcome, cold showers in the lower facilities (hot water in the upper facilities 300 meters away...). Very beautiful view, but the beach is covered with seagrass.Translating
The location by the sea is great, the pizzas are delicious, and the bread service and coffee bar are practical. Unfortunately, the showers without lights are really impractical. The welcome was okay. Overall, we found it rather expensive for what is offered.Translating
A beautiful campsite with typical French charm. The toilets are clean (cleaned in the morning—if you leave them tidy, they stay clean). The showers are adequate, with few places to put things. Wonderful location, friendly staff, kiosk with bread-roll service. Note: cash only. (Camper, two adults + electricity = €35/night.) We would gladly return.Translating
Attractive pitches by the sea (a superb sunset guaranteed), but they are rather tightly packed. Otherwise, an attractive campsite for us. The facilities are “okay”; some fellow countrymen leave them in a rather appalling state. We would definitely return.Translating
A nice site; on the meadow you can stand wherever you like. In the very first row by the sea, you are standing very close together. The facilities are showing their age and are sometimes not very clean. We would still return.Translating
The site itself is fine, but there was no electricity for us. The pitches are not marked out, so some campers took up a lot of space. The wood-fired pizza was okay, but the wait was very long. There is no way to eat indoors. A site I will not visit again.
Lovely relaxed campsite, everything great. We came here after the neighboring site had already closed. There is a nice hiking trail in the village above.
Have you always wanted to sleep and wake up in a campervan to the sound of waves and a sea view? Then this is the perfect campsite—right on the beach, if you are lucky and a first-row pitch is available.
Wonderful location directly by the sea, where you can last a few days with a well-stocked fridge. Rocky beach directly at the site, or a sandy beach reachable in seven minutes with a little scrambling over rocks. Facilities okay. Pizza at the site in the evening and bread-roll service in the morning.
We felt very comfortable here, with a warm welcome and chocolate rolls available to order in the morning. The site has everything you need and is very relaxed. We will return (:
The site is fine overall; of course, the special feature is that you can stand directly by the sea. The facilities are adequate but very old.
Very nicely located campsite, though it feels somewhat old-fashioned. The welcome was a little unfriendly in the evening, completely different in the morning. It is slightly inconvenient that after using the disposal station at the exit (grey water and cassette), you cannot stop at reception and have to walk back down the steep exit to pay.
Great location directly by the sea with a beautiful sunset view. Relatively few toilets, and they are not really hygienically maintained. Pebble beach, but after a few minutes walking over the rocks or along the road there is a cove with a sandy beach and beach bar.
Mega campsite, partly directly by the sea. Bread-roll service available. Do your shopping beforehand; there is no supermarket nearby.
Beautiful campsite directly by the sea, facilities somewhat outdated, delicious pizza. Bread and croissants in the morning are delicious.
Small, lovely site with everything we need. You can stand directly by the sea, though it is somewhat tight. There is considerably more space among the trees, but then you do not hear the sound of the sea. Facilities are absolutely fine. €30 without electricity.
Friendly, simple campsite, only tents and motorhomes. Direct access to a pebble beach. Bread by order plus pizzas. The prices are still excessive for a pitch: €40 for one night for two adults, one dog, a motorhome and electricity.
Magnificent sea view and sunset. You have to choose between shade and the view. Clean facilities. Sleeping to the sound of the waves—we recommend it. Beware, pebble beach.
Small “vintage” campsite, simple and certainly not modern, but clean and fairly priced. It has splendid pitches on the beach, without shade, where you can enjoy the sound of the waves and a magnificent sunset. The rest of the campsite also has shaded pitches, but mainly for small vehicles or tents. For me, one of the best campsites in Corsica.
Simply paradise.
The campsite is nice, with plenty of space and superb 'front row' pitches, although these are quite narrow. The rest rooms aren't as bad as the reviews suggest. We saw far worse on the island, but the site would benefit from some deep reconstruction.
A very nice, simple and natural place. It is pleasant to be by the sea, listen to its sound and appreciate the evocative landscape. The beach has pebbles, but the neighboring beach has sand and can be reached on foot via a path. The bathrooms are clean and the staff are courteous.
For us, the perfect pitch. First row directly by the sea, unfortunately without shade; we brought our own. The incredibly delicious pizza, enjoyed with a view of the sunset, was the perfect end to the day. The facilities are basic but clean. Bring your own toilet paper.
First row—what more could you want? ;-) Strong waves and lots of rocks... swimming requires courage and is not suitable for children. But there is a great sunset and friendly staff. The facilities are basic but clean; I have seen worse. I would gladly return for a stopover. The pizza is only suitable for cheese lovers.
The view is excellent and the sunset beautiful. Uncomplicated check-in. BUT the facilities urgently need to be demolished and completely renovated... The worst we have seen in Corsica. There is no shade on the pitches by the sea, and we did not find the pizza particularly exceptional either.
Three stars for the view; otherwise I do not recommend it: unfriendly, inflexible, outdated and questionable facilities. If you want a sea-view pitch, it is van-to-van with barely enough room to unfold a table... too expensive for what is provided. No small change accepted for bread, €0.50 to charge your phone, €7 for a machine.
Really beautiful site with free choice of pitch (shade or sun). Directly by the sea. The beach and seabed were too rocky for us; with waves, it was quite a stumbling affair. We had a good night's sleep here. The sunset is worth it!
Campsite a few kilometers from Bastia, convenient for arrivals or departures. The sea-front pitches are exceptional—you are right on the beach. Old but functional bathrooms; unfortunately, the water is exclusively hot (perhaps too hot). You can order pastries and bread, and there is pizza every evening from a wood-fired oven (decent). Very fair price (€54 for two nights, two people, one van without electricity).
The campsite is nicely located; you can stand in the shade or directly in the first row by the sea, but then you are in full sun. The facilities are very old and not clean. Hot-water showers are included but unusable because the water is far too hot and cannot be adjusted. Overall, we paid €32 for a campervan with two adults and two small children without electricity. That is too expensive for this site.
