Located on the southern tip of the French island of Corsica, Bonifacio is a city that lies on the Mediterranean Sea coast and is separated from the island of Sardinia by the Strait of Bonifacio, which is 11 km wide. The city is home to the only harbour on Corsica's south coast and is a very popular visitor destination. During the summer months, the city's beaches are a major draw as are the city's other major attractions which include Torra di Sant' Amanza, Torra di Sponsaglia, Église Saint-Dominique de Bonifacio and Église Sainte-Marie-Majeure de Bonifacio.
For visitors interested in prehistoric sites, Bonifacio has two that are important. The first is the ancient cave shelter of Araguina-Sennola, near the city of Capello to the north of Bonifacio. This is a site of the Lady of Bonifacio, a female burial carbon-dated to about 6570 BC, which is either late Mesolithic or Early Neolithic. The second site is the chambered tomb of Vasculacciu near Figari. This tomb belongs to the Megalithic Culture and is dated to the Middle Neolithic. The alignment of the two and the extensive use of chert from Monte Arci in Sardinia shows that the Bay of Bonifacio was a route to inland Corsica from the earliest times.
Ferry services from the port depart to Santa Teresa di Gallura, Sardinia.
