About Renting a Car at Propriano Center

Propriano is a lively port town on Golfe de Valinco on western Corsica, surrounded by sandy beaches and dramatic mountains. With two rental agencies in the city center, you can easily explore the region – Sartène with its narrow stone alleys is just 13 km away, and Filitosa, Corsica's most important prehistoric site, is 20 km to the north. Propriano is a perfect base for combining beach and cultural experiences.

The harbor in Propriano is the center of social life with restaurants along the quay serving fresh fish and Corsican specialties. Plage du Lido, the town's main beach, is just 1 km from the center and easy to reach on foot. Golfe de Valinco offers excellent diving and snorkeling opportunities.

Drive D19 south toward Campomoro (20 km) to experience one of Corsica's wildest and least developed coastlines. Visit Filitosa (20 km north) in the morning before the tour buses arrive. Rent a car with air conditioning – summer temperatures inland can exceed 35 degrees.
