# France, Bonifacio

The resort town of Bonifacio occupies a magnificent secluded location on the southernmost tip of Corsica on a narrow peninsula of dazzling white limestone.

The upper town, a maze of narrow streets flanked by two tall Genoese houses, grows naturally out of sheer cliffs where winds and waves have hollowed out voids and furrows.

On the northern side, between the peninsula and the mainland, lies a deep crevice, forming an ideal natural harbor, which for centuries served as a shelter for various ships. Today it houses a luxury marina that attracts yachts from all over the Mediterranean.
