Barcaggio & Tour d'Agnello
Barcaggio
A remote fishing village at the very northern tip of Corsica. Beyond the dune beach are the Giraglia Island lighthouse and a Genoese tower.
Barcaggio is a remote fishing village at the end of a narrow road. The beach and dunes are a nature reserve, and cattle often wander across the sand. To the east, the Tour d'Agnello and the lighthouse on the islet of Giraglia opposite mark the northernmost point of Corsica. The village has a few seafood restaurants, and you can swim here or walk a stretch of the customs path toward Macinaggio. The mountain roads are narrow, so be patient when passing other vehicles.
