Leave the quaint harbor town of Calvi and relax for a panoramic drive through the Balagne Desert -- an uninhabited desert region of deep red rocks and fragrant green maquis vegetation.
Take advantage of a quick a photo stop at Bocca Marsulino, which offers superb views of the region.
Continue in the direction of Galeria, where the protected marine area begins. The coastal road is narrow and curvy, and bordered by gigantic boulders overlooking a rock-strewn deep blue sea. All along this route you’ll have fantastic views of the gulf, Fango Valley and the magnificent Paglia Orba massif.
Watch for secluded bays, wonderful beaches and island scenery before arriving at Punta Revellata at the entrance to Calvi Bay.
From the small Notre-Dame-de-la-Serra Chapel, take in the picture-perfect views of Calvi, Calenzana and Revellata before driving back to Calvi at sea level.
During this delightful scenic tour you’ll stop for a welcome refreshment at a local café.
Please note: Wear comfortable clothes and shoes.
