    Train ride

    Posted by ColvilleAndersen 21 October 2005

    If you're in Calvi or Ile Rousse on the west coast you can't miss the rickety old train running between the two towns.
    You don't see trains like this very often anymore. Noisy as hell, sweltering hot in the summer but the views are stunning as you rattle along the coast with all doors and windows open.
    It's basically a Beach Transporter. Helping you get out of the two towns to find lesser populated beaches along the coast.

    8 euros for the return trip. Cheaper if you hop off at a beach. Pay at the station or on the train. Calvi to Ile Rousse takes about 45 minutes.
