Departure from Nice with SNCM Company ; The crossing was reserved since february (6 months before) that's why the tickets weren't too expensive : less than 150€ for the round trip.
Journey on economy seat : the seat must be allocated but when you get there you can sit wherever you want. There is a possibility to have something to eat on board.
The crossing lasts 6 hours. Think about taking all necesseraly things in your car for the journey because when the boat leaves you aren't allowed to go to the parking level.
In l’île Rousse, policemen manage the flood of landing passengers. They guide you out of the town. However you can stop if you find a parking. There is a market hale of local product everyday.
On the road to Saint Florent, in the middle of nowhere, there is a snack bar, with a parking lot. You can savour bastlle (a turnover made of a pastry puff with aromatic herbs, brocciu, vegetables...) Sit at a table outside snack bar, the grass hut overhangs the sea (nice view)
Note : Snack bars, restaurants or grass huts are everywhere on roadside, waiting for tourists, sometimes in places totally unexpected.
On the way to Saint Florent, you cross through the desert of Agriates (impressive landscape) 15000 hectares cover with strawberry bushes, heathers, myrtles, olive trees, maritime pines and very rare houses.
Stop in Saint Florent, seaside resort. It was full of people, few parking. There are some monuments to see/or visit (Genoese tower, Cathedral of Nebbiu, Church of Saint Anne).
Campsite A Stella, two-star (Location : Marine de Farinole, 20253 PATRIMONIO) It has like much of them in Corsica, different levels, many trees, no bounded sites. You 'll not be disturbed by the light during the night, there are only few streetlights lost in vegetation. They give you a number to hang at your tent and sticker to put on your car for free entrance in the campsite (there is no gate, barrier) Toilet stalls are proper but the toilets themselves are insufficient.
There is an open air bar/restaurant where you can go at night without fees if you want to get lighting on the evening.
Attention there are a lot of mosquitoes
Positive point is its direct opening on the sea. You don't need to take your car to have a swim. Some people pitch their tents at seaside (nice view but it is hot)
You reach a pebble beach (not exceptionnel), but if you follow and climb it to the east you will discover a nice fine sand cove.
