Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Gradi beach (Corsica island) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Gradi beach (Corsica island) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Gradi beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

The beach is absolutely stunning with its unique red pebble shoreline. The contrast between the red pebbles and the crystal clear water is breathtaking. It's a great spot for a relaxing day by the sea, and the scenery is truly one-of-a-kind.

The bay of Girolata boasts a stunning anchorage with a picturesque view of the beach. The pebbles on the shore are fine and the sea is crystal clear, making it a perfect spot for swimming and snorkeling.
