   • Pointe de la Parata. On an island where stupendous natural spectacles are almost commonplace, Pointe de la Parata will still make you lost for words. This is a black granite promontory announcing the northern limit of the Bay of Ajaccio, near the end of a stubborn string of rocky apexes that continue offshore to create the Sanguinaires Islands.
   • Route des Sanguinaires. Pulling out from the south coast of Ajaccio is a seaside route that leads to Pointe de Parata. It incorporates the “Corniche Ajaccienne”, a raised, bending road that hugs the torturous contours of the rugged coast.
   • Musée Fesch. Ajaccio’s Museum of Fine Arts is named after Napoleon’s uncle, Joseph Fesch, who was archbishop of Lyon. In the early-1800s he founded this museum by donating his extravagant painting collection, and it constitutes one of the largest sets of Italian baroque and renaissance painting anywhere in France.
   • Maison Bonaparte. Napoleon’s birthplace is one of those attractions that is more about the significance of the place rather than what is there. Really, all you need to know is that you’re inspecting the home in which an epoch-maker was born on 15 August 1769.

   Is Ajaccio worth a visit?

   • Ajaccio, Corsica's main city, is fun to visit at any time of year. But if you're a secret (or not-so-secret) Napoleon Bonaparte groupie, plan to be there on August 15 and join the celebration of the birthday of Ajaccio's most famous son. Casa Buonaparte, Napoleon's family home and birthplace, is worth a visit, as is the town cathedral.
