Penta di Casinca


Perched at an altitude of 400 metres on a rocky spur such a veritable eagle's nest, the village is classified as a «Picturesque site of the Department of Corsica» for its exceptional architectural beauty. A spectacular panorama, a remarkable built heritage, several magnificent stone houses with slate roofs, a preserved environment, and an heritage trail... are the main assets of Penta di Casinca. The municipality extends to the seaside resort of Folelli and its sandy beach of San Pellegrino.
