Corsica is almost the perfect holiday destination, basking in the Mediterranean sunshine off the south of France. Perfect Corsica beaches, magnificent mountain scenery, fine towns and villages that simply belong in the surrounding landscape, and of course the climate. The hundreds of beaches and 1,000 kilometres of coastline form the basis of many holidays on the island, with swimming, snorkelling, wind-surfing, scuba-diving and sunbathing being the most popular activities.
Corsica enjoys a typical Mediterranean climate, with summers being hot and dry, and remaining mild even in winter, at least at coastal level. The mountains are of course a little cooler all year round. As you rise above 200 metres above sea level, the contrasts between summer and winter reduce, and above 1,000 metres the weather is quite similar to northern Europe.
