Gare Maritime Nord

4.2(256 reviews)

About

Found on Corsica, Gare Maritime Nord occupies Quai Sott À Portigliola, 20169 Bonifacio, France, at the island's southern tip.

Ferry crossings to and from the mainland use this terminal, and the harbour's own page at http://www.2a.cci.fr/Port_de_Bonifacio.html serves as its online reference. A 4.2 out of 5 score from 256 reviews reflects how travellers judge the facility. Bonifacio connects by road to Porto-Vecchio, Ajaccio, Bastia, Calvi, Corte, Saint-Florent and Propriano, so reaching the terminal from elsewhere on the island is manageable by car. Drivers heading down from Ajaccio or up from Porto-Vecchio will find the quay signed from the main approach roads into town.

Bonifacio sits at the southern end of Corsica, with Porto-Vecchio the nearest of the island's main towns. Markets, village fêtes and religious processions are highlights of the island summer calendar, and spring or early autumn brings quieter, milder conditions. Corsica itself runs to a Mediterranean pattern, with warm summers and a cooler, windier Atlantic character on France's other coasts.

Travellers arriving by sea should plan around summer demand, when crossings and roads are busiest. The terminal's position at the island's southern tip makes it a natural gateway for onward travel north. Sailings link the quay with the mainland, and the 256 reviews logged for the terminal give a sense of how consistently it handles that traffic.
