Corsican seas



Beautiful beaches, full in summer but almost deserted in late September. This one, Palumbaggia, was five minutes drive from the holiday park and empty in the morning.
Crystal clear water and a few rocks means ..... Snorkeling!

 




Ornate wrasse - male apparently


Peacock wrasse, protecting his mate
Painted comber - reaches 8kg and has sharp teeth

I don't know who you are, but you're very cute

But you know what I am......

Exit octopus, stage left

And I'm a cuttlefish.....  you ain't seen me right?
IDs are from this website: https://www.jasonflower.co.uk/index.php?/category/134 but any errors are mine.


Great fun snorkelling - there's always something to see, especially if you have a little bread or something as bait....


The wonderful beach at Rocapina, reached down a mile--long dirt track which keeps the crowds away.
