Wonderful, but...

Too many boats, driven by too many unrespectful people. The local government should block them... read more

Good trip to Saleccia Beach !

You really have to take the speed boat taxi to easily reach this beach which costs 30 Euros each... read more

2015 end of June was our 3rd time in Plage de Lotu. This time the crowd was bigger than before (during our 4 consecutive days), and the beach was full of dirty sea weed so as the water line. It was very dissapointing. See attached pics!
The city seems does not care...

We spent a week or so in Corsica, targeted the best beaches. Salecchia is absolutely the most beautiful. However it is difficult to get there, especially on foot it takes time. The sand is white, the water is as in the photos, but there is no shade, nor nutritions. So be aware of these stuff.

Its hard to ignore the allure of Saleccia beach when visiting North Corsica. We went for the works at the booking kiosk on the marina - boat to Lotu beach, horse and cart to Saleccia and return setting me back an eye watering 114 euros for 2 adults and 2 children (6 and 8 years old) so walking away with a sizeable hole in my pocket, and probably 'mug' written across my tourist face, i had a high degree of expectation riding on this one!
I'm glad we booked the earliest crossing as we were not disappointed by the dazzling turquoise warm water and soft white sand beaches with hardly anyone in sight. We headed straight to Saleccia via horse and cart which was an experience it itself - our two children were able to ride up front with the 'driver' and this was one of their highlights of the holiday!
However, when we headed back to Lotu beach to relax for another couple of hours before the boat back to St Florent, the place was packed with boats and sunbathers (midday and mid week). Hardly the hidden paradise I thought I'd paid up for!

white sand, wonderful sea, wild.. very nice and peaceful.. far from everything, fascinating..

you can reach the place in three ways: 1) by boat (from saint florent, 30 euro per person to go and back), 2) by a "taxi", (from relais de saleccia, casta, 20 euro per person to go and back), 3) or with your car..
all the people strongly discourage you to go with your car because the road is really really really bad, and even the 4x4s risk to get broken.. just to give you an idea: I think that you can go by car to roccapina, but not to saleccia! moreover, if you are lucky to reach the beach without breaking your car, you need not less than 2 hours to get there (since you will drive very slowly of course)
I suggest the second option: the timetable is quite flexible, you get there in 40 minutes, and the last ride to go back is at 8 pm. maybe in august is better going at the relais quite early in the morning in order to be sure to get a place.

anyhow, wonderful!
