Guide
Approach and anchoring
Approach from the west out of Porto-Vecchio. Bottom is sand, holding generally good. The anchorage is open to the E sector, so only settle in westerly weather. The Cerbicale archipelago is a classified nature reserve: landing on the islets is restricted and fishing is regulated.
Practical
No facilities. Closest shelter is the Marine Group and Porto-Vecchio at 3.2 NM W for fuel, water and full services.
Ashore
The anchorage lies in the Réserve naturelle des Îles Cerbicale, a seabird sanctuary for cormorants and shearwaters. No landing on Farina itself under reserve rules. Porto-Vecchio old town and shops are 3.2 NM to the west.
