Description
The Gulf of Sant'Amanza is a small natural piece of heaven located about 7 km far from the Strait of Bonifacio, in Southern Corsica. Crystal-clear waters, white-sand beaches: as always, Corsica never lets its visitors down and it is no less beautiful than some Caribbean landscapes.
The gulf is a long bay which offers to yachtsmen a good shelter from mistral and west wind. So, an ideal place where to have a stop when strong east and west winds blow. Many beaches all round are wild and isolated but ideal to enjoy a pure nature and some water sports.
Sea bottoms are sandy and they reach a depth of 6 metres in front of the small central private pier (boats can't use it).
