All travellers who have stayed in Bonifacio have a wonderful memory of the town.  As Charles V or Napoleon Bonaparte, the writer Anthony Pasquin says Valery, was overwhelmed by the site of Bonifacio.

The archipelago of the Lavezzi islands is part of the Natural Reserve of the "Bouches de Bonifacio", the largest in France (80,000 hectares). The archipelago consists of hundreds of small islands and the tiny granitic islands. Make sure you follow the trail and leave everything clean! Since it has been protected again, nature is back to normal both on land and under water. In addition to the picnic and binoculars, don't forget your mask and fins. After a nap on the warm sandy beaches, plan a walk to the two cemeteries, and go back in time until the middle of the last century. A shepherd who told the drama, was the only witness of the sinking, unlucky Semillante. It is hard to imagine that the water around you is not always that blue. And yet, the Bouches has swallowed a great number of boats! The lighthouse, erected at the south end of the Lavezzi islands and now powered by solar panels, did not exist at that time.
