Nearly half of the island falls within a park which includes the challenging GR 20 hiking trails. The beaches range from busy to remote Saleccia and Rondinara in Pietracorbara. Since 1768 it has been part of France, but it retains a distinct tradition of Italy.
Corsica is known more contemporarily for its very rich and scenic coastline, fantastic hiking trails and smelly cheeses. The highest point, the Monte Cinto, is second in elevation only to Mount Etna, among the Mediterranean islands. It is a popular Northern European tourist destination.
Corsica resembles a globe in miniature, with incredible geographical diversity. Within a half-hour drive, the scenery varies from gleaming bays, lively coastal towns and beautiful beaches to sighted mountain ridges, verdant valleys, thick forests and time-forgotten hilltop villages.
Corsica holidays offer enormously varied opportunities: from hiking and canyoning to snorkeling and sunbathing, enjoying a leisurely boat ride, delving into the multifaceted past of the island and eating local delicacies. While Corsica has been a part of France for more than 200 years, in everything from customs and cuisine to language and character it feels different from the mainland. Central Page
Corsicans take their food and drink quite seriously and it is very popular for locals to have a casual three-course lunch with a couple of glasses of Corsican wine accompanied. This also means the standards are usually strong in restaurants. Cooking in the earthy style takes its inspiration from the countryside, with sun-loving fruits and vegetables, cured meats and cheese.
The Golden Corsican Beaches. Okay, I did! Corsica provides a jaw-dropping variety of choices for a day off the coast, from large bays dotted with smooth rocks to small, sandy beaches that can only be reached by boat. Corsica is also said to have some of France's most enchanting beaches. Corsica is typically a safe destination, particularly for tourists. Spend the night in town outdoors
If you're searching for somewhere to enjoy some post-dinner drinks, the larger towns will have a decent selection of bars to decide on from and even most small villages have a bar where you'll enjoy a glass of the local wine. There are some bars and fish restaurants lining Calvi marina which supply fantastic views but is a bit expensive. Head back from the waterfront and there's a large selection of more affordable options. For the final word night out.
