Cap Corse (Corsica Cape), a peninsula in north Corsica, is a 40-kilometre long mountain range that plunges into the sea. A beautiful road running alongside the wild coast (côte sauvage) from Saint-Florent to Centuri and from Macinaggio to Bastia offers a string of beautiful landscapes: steep cliffs, especially on the western coast, jagged shores dotted with Genoese towers, and picturesque villages. The Douaniers footpath at the cape headland between Centuri and Macinaggio is ideal for walks by the seaside. Some villages of the Corsica cape are really worth a visit:
• Erbalunga, a delightful fishing village;
• The Centuri marine, renowned for its small authentic and picturesque port;
• Nonza, typical village of the Corsica cape overhanging the sea.
