Left 8:30 AM. Porto Veccio to Bonifacio 27 KM.

Often you see signs “Corsica” instead of the proper French name “Corse”.

Many old corsicans speak Italian, newer ones speak French. Easy ride to Bonifacio.


Ferry to Sardegna runs 4 or 5 times a day. A short 1 hour ride across to Sardegna.

Initial impression of Sardegna: very flat and dry, arid. Much like Yugoslavia. Bonifacio if a beautiful port.

Arrived Santa Teresa Gallura then to Porto Pozzo - Palau 25 KM.

Then from Palau took a short 15 minute ferry ride to Isola Maddalena - very worth a visit.

Good beaches. Short ride around the island then back to town of La Maddelena. Many american sailors.
