With its deep, sheltered waters, fine sandy beaches, and mountainous hinterland that slopes down to the sea, the Gulf of Valinco offers a sense of serenity and captivates anyone who ventures there.
Propriano, located at the heart of this gulf, serves as its natural gateway.
From this port, the horizon stretches out in every direction. To the north, the rocky coves and wild inlets of the Taravo invite you to set out on a long voyage of discovery.

Santarelli Marine, whose charter division is Corsica Yacht Charter, has, over more than sixty years, developed an understanding of the Corsican coastline that goes far beyond what is shown on nautical charts.
It is this local knowledge, passed down from generation to generation, that enables us, based in Propriano, to offer a level of service and support that only a company with deep roots on the island can provide.
The Gulf of Valinco is one of the areas that Corsica Yacht Charter has been exploring for decades. Stretching from Ajaccio in the north to Bonifacio in the south, the Valinco coastline plays a central role in our company’s nautical operations.
In Propriano, we tailor our services to the unique character of the Gulf of Valinco and to the expectations of those who choose this destination for its tranquility and unspoiled beauty.
The Gulf of Valinco is one of those places where Corsica reveals its true, unspoiled self. Its deep waters and lush vegetation that stretches all the way to the shore make it a truly authentic sailing destination, one that the island’s regular visitors are particularly fond of.
As you head south from Propriano, the coastline gradually becomes wilder. The headland and Genoese tower at Campomoro mark the entrance to one of Corsica’s least developed coastal areas. The coves that stretch between Campomoro and Tizzano are mostly inaccessible by land, which gives them a truly peaceful atmosphere.
Heading north, the journey follows the Taravo River and its sandy beaches before reaching the approaches to Ajaccio and, further on, the spectacular landscapes of the west coast. Between these two horizons, the Valinco region and its surroundings offer an itinerary where every stop becomes an unforgettable experience.
