Essential Oils, Honey Farm & Farmers Market

Discover the essential oils and delicious honeys of charming Ocana, and visit Ajaccio’s bustling Farmers Market.

Sit back and enjoy a ride through the beautiful Corsican countryside to Ocana. This charming hillside commune is nestled in a pleasant remote setting and filled with terracotta-roofed homes. 

You'll visit Maison des Senteurs, an aromatherapy distillery that has been producing essential oils for more than 25 years. As you learn about their international brand, you’ll have a chance to find out how they use native trees and plants to create 13 different organic oils.  

At Le Jardin des Abeilles, you’ll uncover the captivating world of bee keeping. This honey farm, nestled on the banks of the Prunelli River, produces six varieties of honey in 400 hives. You can walk through their flower-lined pathways and sample a variety of their delicious honeys. 

Back in Ajaccio at the Farmers Market, you can taste your way around the stalls. The bustling market is a feast for the senses, overflowing with colours, scents and flavours, and most of the cheery vendors offer samples.
