Baie de Rondinara

Drop anchor in what's widely regarded as one of Europe's most beautiful bays — a shell-shaped cove with fine white sand and striking turquoise water about 18km north of Bonifacio. It has a wild, almost untouched feel, though in peak season you'll be sharing the anchorage with plenty of other boats drawn by the same reputation. The road in is narrow and winding, so if you're heading ashore by dinghy, the beach rewards the effort.
