Capo Pertusato - A pirate beach like something out of a picture book! In the very south of Corsica, with a view of Sardinia, lies a scenic highlight of the island that is not only adventurous for children.
A trip to Capo Pertusato is really extremely worthwhile. This can be done either on foot or partly by car. From Bonifacio (Chapelle Saint-Roch) a wide footpath leads along the cliffs to the cape and offers magnificent views of the city and the Strait of Bonifacio with Sardinia on the other side. The path is shadeless and should therefore be walked in the morning or evening in summer. It takes 3 hours there and back.

It is a square tower made of masonry and stone, standing in the center of a rectangular building that in the past housed the houses of two keepers. Above the tower is the circular lantern.
The lighthouse houses the Capo Pertusato weather station, officially recognized by the World Meteorological Organization.

The lighthouse was designed in 1839 and built in 1844, and was finally automated in 1985.

Did this path to avoid walking on the road to get to Bonifacio, but truthfully, it's pretty steep to go down only to have to climb up other side, so I was thankful we had decent footwear. Would just go along road next time to reach coastal path but there is a nice large rocky slap at the end of this descent with a great view of Bonifacio so could be worth your effort.
