Awaiting Your Return From Shore

   At the southern tip of Corsica is the ancient fortress town of Bonifacio. Its superb location on a narrow peninsula of dazzling white limestone at Corsica's southernmost point creates a town site unlike any other on the island. Bonifacio was established in the 12th century, but an earlier settlement existed in Roman times. The name originated with Count Bonifacio of Tuscany, who built a castle on the peninsula in 828.
   Bonifacio is comprised of  the upper town, or Haute-Ville, whose narrow cobblestone streets are lined by stately buildings, and the lower town, consisting of the port, a marina, and numerous restaurants and shops.

Pier Information
Guests will be taken ashore via the ship's tenders. The landing pier is close to the marina, with its shops and restaurants and the famous blue lobsters at the Aquariam. The upper town can be reached via a long flight of stairs by the Church St. Erasme at the marina, arriving near the entrance of the upper town.

Shopping
The wood from chestnut and juniper trees is used by local artisans to craft nice souvenirs. Several shops in the upper town offer a good selection of these beautiful carvings.

Cuisine
Numerous restaurants along Quay Comparetti in the marina area offer fresh seafood, pizza, typical French menus and Corsican specialties. The bars and cafes here are the social focus for much of the day and the evening. Eateries in the upper town are less pretentious and less expensive.
