Porto Vecchio Port Ferry Overview
Porto Vecchio is a commune in the Corse-du-Sud department of France on the island of Corsica. It is the chief commune of the canton of Porto Vecchio, which it shares with Sari-Solenzara, Conca and Lecci. Port-Vecchio is a medium-sized port city placed on a good harbor, the southernmost of the marshy and alluvial east side of Corsica.
Porto Vecchio port includes moorings for 450 small craft, commercial facilities and a ferry terminal. Ferry services are available to Marseille and Civitavecchia operated by SNCM and GLD Lines respectively. The population expands to 50,000 in the summer, predominantly Italian. The beaches are well-populated, especially Palombaggia Beach 2 miles to the southeast.
The commune of Porto Vecchio is 40 miles east of Sartène. The north shore of the gulf has many resorts, such as Poretta, Fiori Marina, and others of the commune of Lecci. The east coast, a shore with cliffs, is less habitable; beyond Chiappa Point (a naturist site) the coast goes southwest to the border of Bonifacio commune. |
