Gare Maritime de L'Île-Rousse

4.5(32 reviews)

About

Gare Maritime de L'Île-Rousse, on Corsica, stands at Phare Ile Rousse Jetee, Av. David Dary, 20220 L'Île-Rousse, France, on the island's north-western coast. First-time visitors should expect a working ferry terminal, with the harbour and its jetty forming the setting. A 4.5/5 rating from 32 reviews reflects how travellers judge the terminal.

L'Île-Rousse sits within easy reach of Calvi along the coast, and Bastia, Ajaccio, Porto-Vecchio, Bonifacio, Corte, Saint-Florent and Propriano are the other main towns on the island. The terminal's own pages sit at https://ilerousse-port.cci.corsica/. The 32 reviews give a modest but consistent sample of feedback from people passing through.

Corsica has direct flights from mainland France, while some smaller islands have no airport and are reached only by ferry, so the island's ports carry a share of arrivals. The busiest season is July and August, when French families take summer holidays and coastal towns fill up, and the terminal is at its busiest then.

Markets, village fêtes and religious processions are highlights of the island summer calendar, and L'Île-Rousse's own streets fill in the warm months. Corsica was ruled by Genoa for centuries, was briefly an independent republic, and was bought by France in 1768, and the harbour town's older buildings reflect that past.
