Corsica, France

Located southeast of France's Mediterranean coast, Corsica is a popular holiday destination among tourists, best known for its warm climate, dramatic mountain peaks, and beautiful coastline. The island of Corsica is a veritable natural paradise where heritage is superbly protected. The island of beauty located about 180 km from the French Riviera, the birthplace of the famous Napoleon Bonaparte has no shortage of unique places to enjoy.

Corsica also boasts a rich history spanning centuries, with quaint buildings at every corner, winding cobbled streets, delicious food, and a thriving art and music scene. With sandy coves and gravel coves, the beaches in Corsica are considered some of the cleanest in France. Tourists can choose to sunbathe at the 5km stretch of beach in Calvi, the beaches of Valinco Bay near Propriano, or the southern stretch of coast between Porto-Vecchio and Bonifacio. If you're looking for warm waters, white sand, and clear skies, visiting any of these beaches during the peak of summer will refresh you!

The island of Corsica is also home to some of the world's rare animals and plants, many of which can be found at the Parc Naturel Régional de Corse, a natural park that protects endangered species.
