Luxury holidays in Bastia

When to go

This southern isle’s season lasts longer than most with possible clement weather from April to November, but you’ll want to aim for a date somewhere in the middle.

Getting there

• Planes

  Bastia has its own airport, which is just a 20-minute drive from the Old Port, and has good direct connections across Europe and to Morocco.

• Trains

  A slim yet handy selection of train routes connect Bastia with fellow Haut-Corse port town Calvi or southern hotspots such as Ajaccio or Bonifacio.

• Automobiles

  Bastia itself is set for strolling, but to explore beyond – and you will want to – it’s worth getting a set of wheels, top-down if you can.
