Practical
Port de plaisance de Solenzara 0,4 nm south with visitor berths, water, diesel and a capitainerie on VHF 9. Marina di Fiori 16 nm south for a longer hop.
Ashore
Village of Solenzara along the D168, with supermarket, bakery and restaurants within 500 m of the port. The Bavella needles and the GR20 trailhead at Col de Bavella lie 30 km inland by the D268.
