Autumn

Nestling behind a lido, the bay of San Ciprianu once concealed a pretty lagoon. Following a development project, the beautiful lagoon has been transformed into a succession of geometrically shaped ponds. Strange but unique.

at the water's edge

It's between these waters, in a natural setting that's both wild and controlled, that you'll be spending the day. On one side, the pink flamingos on the pond, on the other the ripples of the turquoise sea. After your morning swim, walk to Punta d'Arasu along the well-maintained path. Don't go too fast. Take your time to find the perfect picnic spot, in the shade of the juniper trees.

It's time to bring out u Casgiu Sartinesu, a delicate smoked goat's milk cheese, and the bread of the dead. This brioche bread with walnuts and sultanas, the star of All Saints' Day, was left on the table for the dead, who were supposed to wake up on the night of 1 to 2 November. Nowadays, it can be eaten day or night without moderation.

We like

Between the pond with its changing reflections and the crystal-clear sea, autumn sublimates the landscape.

Easy to access, a footpath provides a pleasant family outing combining nature and culture.

Taste typical Corsican products in an idyllic setting, a true sensory experience.

Good to know

Don't forget to take binoculars to observe the birds that inhabit the pond!
