Saint-Florent: the ideal place for a holiday in North Corsica

This well-known stopover for Mediterranean sailors is full of treasures to discover. As you wind your way through the narrow streets of the old quarter, you’ll come to the forecourt of the 17th-century parish church of Sainte-Anne.
Are you with your family? Then head for Piazza Posta, as the people of Saint Florentine call it, also known as Piazza Doria. With its frog fountain, it’s a delight for children.
