Corsica: Secret Jewel of France


Travel Guide, Where To Stay, What To Do


Corsica is one of the last unspoilt corners of the mediterranean, with a unique culture, language and spirit.


The greeks used to refer to the island by the name kalliste, meaning the most beautiful. Its easy to see why - it is blessed with a magnificent natural setting and a kaleidoscope of landscapes.





You'll see snow-capped mountains plunging down to pristine white sand beaches; olive groves, pine and chestnut forests; it even has a desert!

You'll find lots of interesting surprises. Did you know, for example, that the west coast has more sunshine than anywhere else in France?

This little jewel of a place offers so much to the visitor.

There are endless opportunities for exploring the island on foot, whether you want to take a relaxing stroll or a more strenous hike.

You'll find some of the best beaches in France...- idyllic and beautiful...and without the crowds you'd expect on the med (you might even have one all to yourself!).

Inland, you'll find ancient villages that seem untouched by time, where local customs and cuisine are still strong.

Fabulous scenery awaits you - great for taking road trips and fantastic photo opportunities.
