Belvédère-Campomoro, Coastal commune in Corse-du-Sud, France
Belvédère-Campomoro is a coastal commune at the southwestern end of the Gulf of Valinco with direct access to beaches and shore paths. The territory spreads across different elevations with views toward the Mediterranean.
The area grew as a fishing settlement and was shaped in the 16th century by a Genoese watchtower built to protect the coast. That tower still stands today as a reminder of the region's defensive past.
The village keeps its roots as a fishing community where boats and nets remain part of the daily view. Local life revolves around the rhythms of the sea and how people work with maritime traditions.
Visitors can use the supervised beach with good swimming conditions and walk along shore paths that connect to neighboring areas. These routes offer views of the coastline and are suitable for different walking speeds.
The commune runs a waste program that converts local garbage into green energy through collection points spread across the territory. This shows how a traditional fishing community adapts to modern environmental practices.
