Guide
Approach and anchoring
Approach from seaward to the west. Prudence on the rocky bottoms along the northern shore. The anchorage is exposed to the west and north-west, untenable in Libeccio. The small harbour of Centuri lies 0.2 nm east for shelter in bad weather, Barcaggio 3.5 nm north-east.
Practical
Water available at Centuri harbour. Anchor on sand patches between rock and seagrass, check the set before leaving the boat. Lobster restaurants and a grocery in the village at the head of the harbour.
Ashore
Centuri village ashore, a stone fishing port that lands the largest share of Corsican lobster by volume. Sentier des Douaniers coastal path north to the Moulin Mattei windmill at 3 km, with a panorama over the cape and the Giraglia islet. Barcaggio beach 3.5 nm north-east by sea, with grazing cows on the sand.
