Travel through the beautiful Agriates desert of northern Corsica on a 4x4 excursion focused on the discovery of Corsican nature, starting from Bastia.

Natura Corsa proposes you to spend a memorable day in the Agriates desert, mixing the discovery of its fauna and flora in a 4x4 and swimming in the turquoise waters of its beautiful white sand beaches.

The Agriates desert, located in Haute-Corse between Saint-Florent and Ile-Rousse, is famous for its landscapes and its isolated paradisiacal beaches. Contrary to what its name suggests, the Agriates desert has a vegetation composed of the natural essences of the maquis (arbutus, myrtle, rockrose, olive trees, etc.). It is home to caves and troglodyte shelters, as well as abandoned villages and sheepfolds, which make a visit to the area equally enriching from a historical and cultural point of view.

During the 4x4 tour from Bastia, the driver will provide you with a lot of information about the Agriates Desert. He will drive you to the beaches of Ghignu and Malfacu, beautiful wild Corsican beaches where you will have the possibility to relax and swim for 4 hours. If you wish, you can also take a 2-hour hike along the coastline to get a closer look at the nature of this incredible desert!

Nous avons roulé sur des pistes bien cahotiques et improbables en 4x4, puis nous sommes baignés sur une plage paradisiaque le tout dans la bonne humeur. Le guide nous a également donné des infos sur la faune et la flore.
