Porto-Vecchio

The essentials of Porto-Vecchio

Porto-Vecchio sits on Corsica's southeastern coast, a natural harbor that has served sailors for centuries. The town's sheltered waters and strategic location make it an ideal base for exploring the Tyrrhenian Sea. Marina Porto Vecchio and Santa Gulia offer direct access to eight charter yachts, providing flexibility for both seasoned sailors and those new to yacht chartering. The departure points connect you to some of the Mediterranean's most compelling sailing grounds.

From here, you can navigate the waters between Corsica and Sardinia, discovering secluded anchorages, granite coves, and coastal villages at your own pace. The region's consistent winds and clear waters create reliable conditions for varied sailing experiences. Porto-Vecchio's position as a working port town—rather than a resort destination—gives it authentic character, with local restaurants and markets reflecting genuine Corsican culture alongside modern maritime facilities.
