If you are travelling by car, drive from Bonifacio on the D58 towards Piantarella and then turn right onto the D260 towards Piantarella and Pertusato. This road leads to the cliffs and just 1 km after the turn-off you have a beautiful view of Bonifacio. After another 500 m turn right towards Pertusato.

A little over 200 m after this turn-off you reach the starting point of the footpath to the Plage des Trois Pointes. This "beach" is not made of sand or gravel, but of chalk cliffs. It is a 5-minute walk down to the sea. On the way you pass the crumbling remains of gun emplacements and crew quarters from World War II. The last part involves some light climbing, which is why the place is not suitable for small children or people with poor footing. As the name suggests, three rocky outcrops jut out into the sea. There is a beautiful view of Bonifacio. The Trois Pointes are great for snorkeling and you can also jump into the clear water.

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.
