Plage de Balistra
Plage de Balistra is a wide, spacious beach about 10 kilometres from Bonifacio where you can anchor off and enjoy some real breathing room — a rare find on this stretch of Corsican coastline. The setting is unhurried and family-friendly, with far fewer crowds than the more famous nearby spots. The access track is rough, so most people skip it overland, which means you'll often have much of the beach to yourself.
