  1. A natural site with a surface area of 2 ha where you can learn about the secret life of the tortoises and turtles. This park is unique in Europe and is devoted to breeding, studying and protecting land tortoises and turtles from all over the world. The Centre is home to 130 species and over 2,000 animals Since 2017, the park has had a clinic for medical care, surgeries, biochemical and coprological analyzes, in optimal conditions. Next to this room are two rooms incubation temperature and hygrometry controlled, allowing one to hatch females, and the other to hatch males. Newborns are kept for three to four days in incubators, which allows them to use the reserves of their yolk sac ("egg yolk") before being placed in breeding terrariums.

  • 5Far exceeded expectations

    What a lovely little find. Huge selection of tortoises and turtles from all over the world. Laid out really nicely with information on each breed in English as well as French. Staff very friendly. Would really recommend a visit. Our kids (2 teenagers) loved it.

  • 1Didn’t take tour, taxi fare too high

    Unfortunately, we were not able to visit this place because the taxi fare was too expensive and there was no guarantee of return arrangements. Too much uncertainty. Very disappointing. We wish there had been a tour that included transportation, especially considering that this was promoted as “one of the top things to do on the island “.

  • 5Nice part day excursion...

    Nice part day excursion from cruise ship. Taxi from port to the park was 95 euros. Suitable for able footed as the walk paths change elevation. Our visit in October found many species in hibernation.

  • 5Very welcoming and beautifully kept place to visit.

    Was a beautifully kept place with perfect enclosures for the animals. I recommend to visit this place. If your English make sure you have a translating app.

About Ajaccio

Ajaccio is Napoleon's birthplace and Corsica's main port, a sunny pastel city on a wide gulf with beaches close by and mountains rising behind.

Ajaccio faces south-west across a wide gulf on Corsica's west coast, with the island's mountains rising behind. Napoleon Bonaparte was born here in 1769, and the family's house, the Maison Bonaparte, is now a museum. His statue stands in Place Foch, and he was baptised in the cathedral. The Palais Fesch holds a large collection of Italian painting built up by Napoleon's uncle, Cardinal Fesch.

Top-ranked sights in Ajaccio: Calanques de Piana, Maison Bonaparte.
