We know, we know… You loved our yearly printed guides, filled with updated info about your favorite cruising destinations and gorgeous photos from professional photographers. They were flying off the shelves in marinas, boatyards and marine outlets, all over the harbors we covered. Many of you were even collecting them, summer after summer. And it is true that, since the launch of the Yacht Insider’s Guide publication in 2009, whether it was for the French Med, the Balearics Islands or New England, the focus has been on our printed guides.

Bastia, the capital of the north part of the island and the second largest city of Corsica, makes a wonderful stop to start a trip in Corsica. The ‘new’ harbour is busy, with ferries arriving from France and commercial activity. Nearby is the lovely Vieux Port, surrounded by colourful building, nice restaurants and bars. The ambiance is very serene and authentic. The town is classified as a ‘City of Art and History’ and the old part, called Terra Vecchia is home of beautiful monuments and Baroque churches. Perched above the old port is Terra Nova quarter, and its 15th century citadel. It is easy to discover both gorgeous districts on foot from the old port.
