Activity description

Come and explore the Scandola nature reserve and the Gulf of Porto on board the Croisières Grand Bleu semi-rigid boat!

During the Grand Tour Scandola excursion, discover, from Cargèse, a jewel of the Corsican coastline: the fantastic Scandola nature reserve. Listed as a Unesco World Heritage Site, the Scandola nature reserve is a mecca of marine biodiversity. You may come across groups of dolphins, ospreys, wild goats, and many other species. The red granite cliffs and the crystal blue waters offer breathtaking wild landscapes!

Croisières Grand Bleu offers two options for this excursion, the Grand Tour Scandola Day trip and the Grand Tour Scandola Afternoon trip.

On board a semi-rigid boat that can accommodate up to 12 people, the Grand Tour Scandola Day trip will take you from Cargese to Omigna Point and its Genoese tower, as well as the caves and coves of Capo Rosso. After crossing the Gulf of Porto, you will visit the Scandola reserve and have a two-hour break in the small village of Girolata for lunch and a swim. Finally, you will visit the calanques of Piana, before returning to the port of Cargèse.

The Grand Tour Scandola Afternoon excursion offers exactly the same itinerary with the magnificent colors of the setting sun. However, the break in the village of Girolata is only 40 minutes.

Come and discover the wonders of the Gulf of Porto on board the Grand Bleu III!
