Cala Pertusino

Cala Pertusino is a secluded anchorage tucked into the rugged southern coastline just east of Bonifacio, where dramatic limestone cliffs meet crystal-clear turquoise water. You drop the hook here and find yourself surrounded by raw Corsican maquis scrubland tumbling down to the sea, with no crowds and no infrastructure — just the anchor and the scenery. It's the kind of spot you don't want to tell too many people about. The Pertusato lighthouse area is nearby, and the famous Bonifacio citadel is a short distance up the coast if you need a dose of civilization.
