    Why visit? Our review<\/h3>\n\n

    Bonifacio is definitely the most fascinating city in Corsica. Established on white cliffs, it is suspended above the water.Its port is well protected, and the whole city offers a lot to do and see.Its most famous feature is the King Aragon Staircase, made up of 189 steps cut into the cliff to reach a freshwater spring.Boat trips allow you to admire it from the sea.It’s a great mix of history, culture, architecture and nature.We loved it, especially at sunset when the rays hit the cliffs.<\/p>\n\n
