Corsica, located 170km off the south coast of France, is called “the island of beauty” for good reason. With stunning scenery and France’s best known hiking route, the 200km GR20, it’s a hiker’s paradise.
Corsica also has lovely beaches with clear water and great snorkelling and scuba diving. It’s a super place to hire a boat for a day and take a trip out to sea, especially down south, where Bonifacio makes for a spectacular sight from below the cliffs.
The island is full of small, traditional villages and has its own very special culinary character, a fusion of French and Italian influences, with delicious local ingredients.
It's the perfect sun and sand holiday destination, with spades of culture and history to be discovered too.
