🌅 Bastia's Seafront – Atmosphere & Character The promenade in Bastia doesn't stretch along a traditional, continuous sandy beach, but rather runs in several sections along the coastline – particularly between the Old Port (Vieux Port), Place Saint-Nicolas, and the new marina. Instead of wide sandy beaches, rocky stretches, smaller bays, and the proximity to urban city life dominate. 🏛️ Sights & Highlights Vieux Port (Old Port): The picturesque old port is the centerpiece. Framed by pastel-colored houses and cafés, it invites you to stroll and linger. Place Saint-Nicolas: One of the largest squares in France, lined with palm trees, right on the water. Ideal for strolls with views of the sea and the ferries. Marina & Modern Waterfront Promenade: Located just south of the old port, with more modern facilities, boats, and yachts. A section of walking paths along the coast also begins here.

Saint John the Baptist (Saint Jean Baptiste), to whom this church in Bastia is dedicated, is—like Saint Joseph—a man on the threshold between the Old and New Testaments. His parents are Zechariah and Elizabeth. After announcing the Incarnation through them, the Mother of God visits her relative Elizabeth, who, in her old age, will give birth to a son, John the Baptist. John the Baptist is six months older than Jesus and is considered his forerunner. He lives in the desert, preaches repentance from sin to the Jewish population, and baptizes them in the Jordan River. Jesus also comes there to be baptized, where he is filled with the Holy Spirit, who descends upon him from heaven. The feast day of Saint Jean Baptiste in the calendar of saints is June 24, exactly six months before Christmas Eve.
