Cala di Conca

Cala di Conca is a small cove on Corsica's Mediterranean coast with turquoise water and white sand backed by granite rocks. The narrow bay opening shields the water from waves and creates a sheltered mooring spot for boats.

The Sartenais coast served as a haven for merchant ships since ancient times, offering shelter from storms and pirates. This cove played an important role as a waypoint on Mediterranean trade routes.

This beach embodies Corsican maritime identity through its traditional fishing practices and ancestral coastal navigation techniques.

You can reach this cove either by hiking along a coastal path for several hours or by boat from nearby harbors. Bring plenty of water and sturdy shoes, as the trail crosses rough terrain and steep sections.

The cove is so narrow and well-sheltered that boats can anchor in turquoise water without needing artificial protection. This makes it a popular refuge for local fishermen and sailors seeking shelter from rough conditions.
