Discover the entire Gulf of Porto and its riches on a 3.5 hours boat trip!

It is in the company of a captain who is passionate about his region that this boat trip in the Gulf of Porto takes place, to discover the most beautiful sites of this gulf north of Piana. On board a comfortable 10 meters boat, you will set sail from the port of Porto, hamlet of Ota, and first go to the Scandola Nature Reserve and the Bay of Elbo to discover its preserved landscapes.

The next part of this boat trip in the Gulf of Porto will be spent in the village of Girolata where you will enjoy a 30 minutes stopover, then at Capo Rosso where you will have the opportunity to swim if the weather conditions allow it. The return to Porto will be along the Calanques de Piana, with the captain manoeuvring the boat inside the caves to allow you to discover them up close.

If you are lucky, you may even come across dolphins during your boat trip in the Gulf of Porto! Between sumptuous landscapes, nice anecdotes and relaxing moments, this Corsican experience is not to be missed if you are in Porto and Piana!
