      The **Port de Centuri** in the northwest of Cap Corse is a picturesque, quiet fishing port characterized by the following features:

      ### 🎣 In a nutshell:

      * **Traditional fishing port:** Tiny but lively – home to a small fishing community and known as the French capital of lobster and crayfish fishing.
      * **Atmosphere:** Surrounded by pastel-colored Corsican-style houses and stone roofs, the harbor provides an idyllic setting for strolling and taking photos.
      * **Infrastructure:** Approximately 60 boat moorings with facilities for small boats; equipped with drinking water and electricity ([yachtdigest.com][2]).
      * **Culinary highlight:** Several harbor restaurants offer freshly caught lobster and seafood – a culinary highlight in summer.
      * **Nature & Surroundings:** Surrounded by steep hills and the protection of a renovated Genoese watchtower ruin ("Tour de Centuri"), overlooking the bird-protected island of Capense
