Corsica isn’t just a destination. It’s a soul. A land between sky and sea, wild, proud, free. To truly enjoy it, here are some tips from someone who loves it with respect:
Rent a car. It’s a must. The best spots are off the main roads.
Don’t just stay by the coast. Head up to the mountain villages, explore the maquis, feel the wild.
Respect the locals. Corsica has a powerful history, a strong identity. Be curious, but humble.
Avoid July and August if you can. Too crowded, too hot. May, June, or September = paradise.
Taste everything. Charcuterie, Corsican cheese, honey, figatellu… and of course, some local wine.
Protect nature. Leave nothing behind. This paradise is not just an Insta backdrop – it’s sacred ground.
In summary:
Corsica deserves respect. It’s not just a place you visit; it’s one you honor.
Take your time. Be discreet. Be real. And it will give back to you.
