Calvi
Escape to Corsica’s beauty in a heartbeat. Fly over the Mediterranean and land directly at the foot of the historic Citadel.
Calvi sits on Corsica's northwestern coast beneath a Genoese citadel, looking out over one of the finest bays in the Mediterranean — and there is no ferry or short drive that gets you there from Monaco or Nice, only a crossing of open water. Monacair's connection lands you at Calvi-Sainte-Catherine in around an hour, replacing what would otherwise be a ferry crossing and a full day of travel with a single scenic flight. It's the fastest way to reach the Balagne region's beaches, hill villages and vineyards for a long weekend, or to connect onward to a yacht anchored in the bay.
