villanova
The green lung of the Ajaccio region, Villanova enjoys an exceptional environment.
Overlooking the splendid Gulf of Lava, the village is characterized by its stone houses, its renovated wash-house and its church with its unhooked campanile. Its open-air theater adjacent to the town hall and its dynamic associations give the village its cultural dimension, notably "I Stanilali di Villanova" in July.... Villanova is also known as a village of artists, who can welcome you by appointment.
Historically, Villanova is known for its resistance during the 2nd World War, when the famous Casabianca submarine docked in the Gulf of Lava to supply weapons to the resistance fighters.
From the village, a number of footpaths lead to the seafront.

The Gulf of Ajaccio is full of wonders and if we had to make a ranking, the first place would certainly go to Les Îles Sanguinaires! [...] Sometimes close, sometimes far away, sometimes glowing or hidden in a thick fog, they offered me a thousand faces. Whoever sets eyes on this archipelago cannot but be touched by its wild and rare beauty.
