An island of passion
Come once and you will always return
For the wild beauty of its protected nature and its transparent emerald waters; … for the figatelli, the brocciu and the wine from Patrimonio; … for the dramatic polyphonies and religious festivals, the charm of its villages with their granite houses. Corsica: discover it once and love it for life.
Corsica, what else ?
There are so many people who never want to leave. Whether celebrities or ordinary people, they move here to live or keep coming back throughout the year. For a weekend, a week, sometimes longer, Corsica always has something to offer: a certain Mediterranean flavor…
Do you prefer the north or the south ?
There are those who prefer Bastia, le Cap and Saint Florent, and others who swear by the coves of Bonifacio, the pleasures of Porto Vecchio, and the bird sanctuaries of the Lavezzi islands. All are convinced they are right and anyone who can change their mind must be extremely clever.
East coast or west coast ?
And there are also the others - those who prefer the west coast, for whom the coves of Piana, Ajaccio, and the Sanguinaire islands are beyond comparison with the rest of the island. And the devoted admirers of the immense beaches of the eastern coast, of Mount Renoso and La Castagniccia, lovers of wild and protected natural areas

And because in Corsica there are things to do, people to see, and festivals to attend everywhere. And above all, arrive on the island with your curiosity intact and without a set agenda; bring your desire to meet the residents, to discover their soul and their talents, to share their pleasures - and why not, their concerns too.
