Getting around
Often know as the garden of Corsica, the Balagne offers much which is typical of the island; sandy coves, high mountain peaks and ancient villages that exude character and charm. It also holds one of Corsica's natural wonders; the nature reserve of Scandola situated between the Balagne and Porto, and best reached by boat from Calvi. The Balagne has changed very little since the days when Prince Rainier of Monaco brought his new bride Princess Grace here on their honeymoon, and one can still appreciate its savage beauty.
Calvi is a fantastic place to holiday, particularly if you've never been to Corsica before - you could not dream of a more picturesque location.
