Romans sent colonies of prisoners to cut the granit destinated to roman monuments; it was impossible to flee as the island was surrounded by dangerous depths. The "Cursed Siren", this is the island’s nickname, as its beauty hid snares, which all navigators feared. In 1855, during a stormy night, the bigger and tragic shipwreck of the Mediterranean Sea happened: the ship Semillante, which transported more then 600 French soldiers to Crimea, sank in the Lavezzi Archipelago. Their bodies were buried in Lavezzi into the 2 cemeteries built for them. The legend recognizes in the shouts of the gulls the voices of their souls, who are even now looking for peace in the blue sea. The island of Cavallo was abandoned during Augusto’s empire and was left at its destiny for many centuries. It was rediscovered later in 1800 when the shepherd Terrazzoni went to live there alone with his sheeps and goats. Cavallo is the only habited island of the Archipelago and is the most exclusive paradise of Mediterranean Sea. Ten years ago an harbour was built, surrounded by a village and one hundred apartments. Cavallo is not an island for a normal tourism; it must remain an oasis with few buildings in order to not disturb the pleasure of holidays. It is a separate world, closed and privileged, where residents can find everything, surrounded by a magic environment, which represents the most elegant corner of Mediterranean Sea.

Imposing rocks carved into interesting shapes by strong winds, lunar landscapes, wild coves and spellbinding beauty – this is what Capo Testa is all about. Incredible windsculpted rocks attract thousands of tourists here. In pre-historic times some of those granite formations, tafoni, with rounded entrances and concave walls, where locals set up homes. Later, in Roman times, Capo Testa granite was mined and shipped to metropole, where it was reportedly used to build the Pantheon. 6 Highlight Te 1-hour hike to the cape: magnificent views of the rock formations, rocky coves and the cobalt Mediterranean 7 Bonifacio In the very south of Corsica there is a fabulous isolated peninsula, with the steep coasts of strikingly white limestone. And this is exactly where Bonifacio, the most photogenic of Corsican cities, is situated. Strolling along Bonifacio waterfront promenade and looking south, you will see Sardinia from across the strait, which is called, appropriately, the strait of Bonifacio. Bonifacio’s must-see attraction is the Citadel, perched on the rocky outcrop overlooking the port, and the steep Escalier du Roi d'Aragon, or the King Aragon Steps, leading from the citadel to the waterfront.
