A crescent of pale sand cupped by hills thick with maquis, Santa Giulia sits just outside Porto-Vecchio on Corsica's southern coast. The lagoon-like bay stays shallow and calm well out from shore, which makes it unusually good for swimming. Ranked among Europe's and the world's top beaches, it draws a crowd that wants both the scenery and the amenities, and the beach delivers both without apology.
