Prohibited anchoring zone south of Punta Capicciola on the south-east coast of Corsica, between Porto-Vecchio and the reserve of Cerbicale.

Guide

Approach and anchoring

Seabed of sand and rock with Posidonia meadows. A prefectoral order closes the 300-metre band to both anchoring and navigation, enforced by the Zonza commune, and there is no beach access. A recent wreck lies in about 2 to 3 metres in the middle of the bay, so approach with care. Shelter from NW, N and NE winds if transiting. Nearest harbours: Marina di Fiori 4.5 NM to the SW and Quilichi 4.5 NM to the SW.

Practical

No anchoring. The organised mooring buoys have been removed, so continue to Marina di Fiori for a berth.
