Les Calanques weathered rock

---

Running south past Calvi and down to Ajaccio, the rugged and jagged west coast of Corsica is probably the most attractive and popular coastal area of the island. A world renowned site of Corsica. The sea and wind-eroded granite rocks of the Calanques de Piana form a stunning architecture with colours changing from golden, pink to red depending on where the sun is. A scenic, but very winding and narrow road passes through the Calanques and is probably the best access to discover the area. There are regular spaces on side of the road that enable cars to stop and take pictures.
