Highlights
Southern Corsica is popular with tourists, especially the resort of Porto-Vecchio on the south-east coast. Sometimes called the Corsican St-Tropez, it is home to fashionable bars and boutiques and a harbour full of expensive yachts. Another popular seaside town is Bonifacio, Corsica’s oldest town, which is perched dramatically atop limestone cliffs. Nature-lovers should visit the Îles Lavezzi or the Scandola nature reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Corsican food is a delicious blend of French and Italian cuisines with plenty of fresh fish, seafood and meat like wild boar, lamb and veal. If you get the chance then watch the unique Corsican polyphonic choral singing at one of the many local concerts.
