Plage de Tropica

One of the great beaches of the Eastern Coast

Tropica beach is located in Linguizzetta, on the Eastern Coast of Upper Corsica. It's a fine sand beach that stretches out lengthwise, which leaves room even when it fills up in the height of summer.

It's flanked by two campsites, Club Corsica and Camping des Eucalyptus, which give it its natural crowd: plenty of holidaymakers staying nearby come to spend the day there. Naturism is tolerated, without being a strict rule.

How to get there

To reach the sand, you need to park before one of the campsites and walk through it. There's no direct access from the road, which filters out some of the passing traffic a bit.

This way of getting in also explains why the beach stays relatively quiet despite its reputation: you don't just stumble onto it.

Atmosphere on the sand

The crowd mixes naturists, couples and families. Reviews describe an easy coexistence between nudists and textile holidaymakers, everyone finding their spot on this long stretch of sand.

The water is calm, the natural setting stays unspoiled, with no buildings or heavy development visible from the beach. That's the setting that comes up most often in reviews: the space, the relative calm despite the crowds in summer, and a rather relaxed family atmosphere.

What to know before you go

Tropica is considered one of the best known and most accessible naturist beaches in Corsica, notably because the two neighboring campsites offer parking and lodging right nearby. In peak season, the crowds can be considerable, driven by the campsite residents.

If you're looking for a naturist beach where the vibe stays easygoing, busy in summer but with enough space not to feel cramped, Tropica remains a safe bet on this stretch of Corsican coast.
