Porto på Korsika - camping Solo e Vista

Last night we arrived in Porto, located in the bay of Golfe de Porto, on the west coast of Corsica. Driving along the west coast of Corsica is incredibly beautiful and when we arrived at the campsite in Porto, it didn't get any worse.

Porto in Corsica

The area around Porto is a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its fauna and flora. The city has a large Genoese watchtower, and there are many different boat trips from the harbour. This is a truly beautiful and exciting place!

Camping Solo e Vista

We went to a campsite called Sole e Vista. It was very hilly and steep, but they had a nice pool with great views of the mountains, where we relaxed after the dramatic drive.

A little French girl amused herself by repeatedly lifting a large (but light) toy boat into the pool and shouting "Mama look! Papa look! Je suis Pippi Langstrump!". ("Mum look! Dad look! I'm Pippi Longstocking!") It's great to hear that the French children are familiar with Swedish literature 🙂.

Dream post, I must say. Oh what a luxurious pool on a campsite. Not bad.
So you have changed the header. Like it (even) better than the old one if I may say so:-)

Corsica's nature is amazing!
Enjoying your pictures. I can imagine that it was
hilly and winding to get up there.
But you got your money's worth, I must say.
Good continuation - because I want to follow. 🙂

What lovely pictures you have given us of Corsica. I'm not the least bit jealous of that road, though.
Great picture you have switched to.

I wouldn't be able to relax at those heights! ;- ) But now I can follow your blog and see places that I would never dare to visit. Thank you and thank you!

Ama de casa, haha, it was actually quite hot in the pool. But I'm actually a swimmer 😉 .

JoY, at the same time it is from the roads that you have the most amazing views. Glad you like the header image!

Steve, this is how we experience nature! Glad you like the picture!

No M, maybe we weren't completely relaxed either, but it was worth it. Fantastic scenery!

Yes, I don't know if I could handle the roads...but the pool and the campsite 🙂
Nice picture at the top, it summarises everything you are doing right now!

Delicious! And taking a breather at a good campsite and enjoying wonderful views is hopefully "good pay" for the journey there.
Really liked the new image in the header. Awesome!

Anette Å, nice that you like the header picture! I don't have to drive because I don't have a driving licence, but Peter drives calmly and steadily 🙂.

Ditte, glad you like the picture in the header! We were not really very fond of the campsite, but the pool and the view from there were fantastic! Nice to breathe out there after the trip 🙂.

It's funny to hear children say Pippi Longstocking. Here in France her name is Fifi Brindacier!
