Guide
Approach and anchoring
Approach from the Strait of Bonifacio, watch for the Perduto and Lavezzi rocks east of the anchorage, all marked. Sand bottom, good holding. Sheltered from W through N to NW and SW. Exposed to E and SE swell from the Tyrrhenian.
Practical
Anchorage only, no services. The Sperone golf course and private estate are ashore, landing on the beach only, no access to the golf property. Sant'Amanza 2.1 NM N and Bonifacio 2.9 NM NW for refuge and supplies.
Ashore
White-sand beach adjoining the Domaine de Sperone golf course, 18 holes designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr in 1989. The Réserve naturelle des Bouches de Bonifacio covers the waters east to the Lavezzi islands, a granite archipelago with a cemetery for victims of the 1855 Sémillante shipwreck.
