The cruise North Corsica
Download brochure
Calanques, deserted beaches and nature reserves.Alone, as a couple, as a family, between friends, a cabin or the whole boat.
Discover the beauty of the island by sea.
A cruise away from the crowds, with a succession of steep cliffs, deep coves and wild beaches bathed in an emerald sea.
A marvellous discovery of Corsica's west coast, from Ajaccio to the foot of Cap Corse, via the Sanguinaires islands, the calanques of Piana, the Scandola reserve, the fortified town of Calvi and Palo, a Unesco-listed site.
The beaches lining the Agriates desert are in no way inferior to those of tropical islands: fine white sand, blue water and not a single building on the horizon. They can only be reached by boat or footpath.
Cruising along the island's beautiful west coast is not just for seasoned sailors, but for all those who want to discover Corsica without the constraints of crowded summer roads and without having to pack their bags every time they change location.
It's a fascinating cruise of sheer cliffs, deep coves and tiny islets bathed by an emerald sea.

Program North Corsica
Ajaccio - Iles Sanguinaires - Cargèse
Departure for the Iles Sanguinaires.(navigation 1h30).
Historically, they're known as the Sanguinaires, not for their red color at sunset, but because makeshift settlements housed coral fishermen nicknamed "sanguinari" (black-blooded people), returning from quarantine in Africa.
Characterized by their austere, hostile appearance, they are a listed maritime site, a haven of peace for seabird species and a reserve for a rich flora of rare, endemic species.
The walk is pleasant, the relief rugged, an impression reinforced by the color of the rock... At the tip of the island, don't miss the incomparable view of the Gulf of Ajaccio...
At the end of the day, continue to Cargèse (2h sailing), a picturesque fishing and yachting port. This village is a pleasant seaside resort with a Mediterranean atmosphere.
Cargèse was founded by the Greeks, which is why it is the only village in Corsica to have the distinction of having 2 churches facing each other, one Catholic and the other Orthodox.
Dinner and overnight at anchor.
-
Program North Corsica
Cargèse - Calanques de Piana - Girolata
Departure for the Calanques de Piana, one of Corsica's most extraordinary sites. They offer a breathtakingly beautiful panorama of the Gulf of Porto.
In the evening, we call at Girolata, with its eucalyptus trees, Genoese fortress, turquoise bay, staircase houses and mountainous surroundings. Girolata is particularly protected by the absence of roads. The village can only be reached by sea, or by a footpath that links up with the GR20.
Dinner and overnight at anchor or alongside the quay.
-
Program North Corsica
Girolata - Scandola Reserve - Galéria - Calvi
Discover the Scandola Reserve. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is one of France's Protected Marine Areas. This sanctuary for flora and fauna is virtually inaccessible, and can only be approached by sea. It's home to many endemic and protected seabirds and plants.
You can then enjoy a pleasant swim at the edge of the reserve, before lunching in idyllic surroundings north of Marina d'Elbo or in Galéria, a small fishing port. In the evening, you'll call at Calvi, located at the north-western tip of the island, in a beautiful setting.
Dinner and overnight at anchor or alongside the quay.
-
Program North Corsica
Calvi - L'Ile Rousse - Acciolu or Saleccia (the Agriates)
Today, the Captain will take you to Ile Rousse. You'll discover the north-west of the island, the perfect place to relax.
Its seaside resorts and numerous beaches border the surrounding mountain scrub and small villages perched on promontories.
You'll end the day either in the Bay of Acciolu (1hr 30min sailing) to see the Agriates Desert, a vast expanse of ridges, valleys and rocky peaks facing the sea and Cap Corse, or at Saleccia beach, a true marvel with its crystal-clear water and long strip of white sand.
Dinner and overnight at anchor.
-
Program North Corsica
Agriates - Revella - Palo (Capo Rosso)
Sail to Revellata, an outcrop of land south of Calvi, offering a taste of the wilderness so characteristic of the Balagne region. Here you'll find numerous coves and paths. Enjoy the delicious water, or take a pleasant stroll along the paths. Then stop off at Palo, south of Capo Rosso, a Unesco World Heritage site topped by the Turghiu Genoese Tower.
Dinner and overnight at anchor.
-
Program North Corsica
Palo - Figuera - Ajaccio
Discover Figuera, south of the Gulf of Sagone, with its long white sandy beaches.
At the end of the day, sail to Ajaccio.
Dinner and overnight on board, at anchor or alongside the quay for a night stroll through the streets. Why not take the opportunity to discover the charm of the old town?

Catherine B., septembre 2024
Très belle croisière en haute Corse. Notre équipage Jean et Loulou ont réussi à faire de cette croisière un souvenir inoubliable. Malgré une houle importante certains jours, Jean a jonglé avec le trajet afin que nous le fassions dans les meilleures conditions. Loulou excellente cuisinière a régalé nos papilles. Merci à eux .
Guy-Matthieu and Isabelle V, Juillet 2024
Even though Corsica is a beautiful place that I know well, I'm still amazed at the beauty of this place visited from the sea. I set off from Ajaccio to sail up to the Cape with Catlante [...]. A big thank you to our skipper Antoine who, through his professionalism and passion, enabled us to travel in calm waters by doing our route in reverse, which, thanks to his knowledge of the area, enabled us to discover places that only he knows the secret of, and a big thank you also to David for his meals, from breakfast to dinner and including aperitifs, which thrilled our eyes and taste buds. Hats off to the team, thank you for a great time, and we'll be back soon.
Nicole D, Juillet 2024
Great experience with Catlante on catamaran 620 on Northern Corsica. Captain and hostess very attentive. Beautiful boat, very pleasant and friendly (1 table for all participants). 3 sunbathing areas. Beautiful itinerary combining beach, sightseeing and remarkable nature spots. Meals and drinks included in the package! Paddle, kayak, masks and snorkels, flippers and chips available. Beach towels too! In short, all the ingredients for a successful week.
Jacques M, Juin 2024
Le bonheur de crique en crique.
Après 2 Grenadines et une Corse du Sud/Sardaigne à mon palmarès; j'ai découvert cet été la Corse du Nord sur un 620 : Le Levant.
Capitaine de long court formidable aux multiples talents : Benoit à la barre.
Bonne humeur communicative et infatigable, il sait composer avec toutes les envies de ses hôtes; spontanément il les devance même,.
Maitre à manier les voiles on s’est senti en sécurité totale à minutieusement visiter la cote dans ses plus belles criques.
Cathie sa matelote, brillante cuisinière, nous a comblés par l’abondance et la diversité de ses idées culinaires et leur parfaite exécution.(ahh ce gratin dauphinois..). Comme toujours avec Catlante nous avons de facto : le confort de belles cabines, du linge en abondance, et tout ce dont on peut rêver manger ou boire à totale disposition.
Merci Catlante pour des vacances de rêve qui commencent par un accueil adorable, éclairé et personnalisé dés le premier coup de fil.
Ma future 5ème croisière aux Seychelles et ma 6ème à St Barth sont déjà bookées.

FABULOUS CROSSING in North Corsica! To sum up, unforgettable emotions with the family, great encounters on the boat, breathtaking scenery, a magnificent boat!!! spacious and comfortable, ultra original meals wonderfully prepared by chef and first mate, Elsa. Exceptional & remarkable in every way.
Frédéric D, July 2022
Superb cruise north of Corsica, top crew! Perfect boat for 12.
Skipper Sony very professional and above all friendly.
The cook, Laurence, was brilliant, knowing how to surprise every day with very good dishes, and how to do it for 12 for lunch and dinner every day, bravo! and what's more, super smiley and particularly friendly.
Nothing to say again, and what's more, the scenery is magnificent.
Many thanks.
FAQ
Les croisières en catamaran en Corse sont des vacances idéales de fin mai à fin septembre. Si vous craignez la chaleur, choisissez plutôt juin, pour ses jours les plus longs de l'année et sa température douce, ou septembre pour ses températures à la baisse et la mer encore chaude de l'été.
La côte est de la Corse est la plus intéressante. Du nord au sud de l'île, elle offre un littoral saisissant, parfaitement adapté aux croisières en voilier.
C'est une question difficile. Toute la côte est de la Corse est splendide. Si vous préférez l'authenticité et les côtes escarpées, choisissez la croisière Haute-Corse, si vous souhaitez plus de plages et moins de relief, optez pour la croisière Corse du sud. Ou faites les deux croisières !
Il n'y pas de plus bel endroit que la Corse. La Corse fait partie des plus belles îles du monde.
Une croisière en catamaran en Corse, all inclusive à bord, avec skipper-capitaine et cuisinier, coûte en moyenne 2100 € par personne. Le prix varie beaucoup suivant le mois de départ et le modèle du catamaran.
Il faut ajouter le transport pour se rendre jusqu'au point de départ à Ajaccio.
Les croisières en Haute Corse sont opérées en départ les samedis et les dimanches. Tous les modèles de catamaran de Catlante sont présents au départ de cette croisière.
