Corsica can naturally be described by its geographic characteristics: 8700 km2, 183 km long, 83 km wide, a summit at 2710 metres high and about 1000 km of coasts. Corsica is the third largest island in the Mediterranean and the one with the highest. Land was torn away from the old continent during the “tertiary” era, and has been a crossroads for seafaring peoples of different origins.

To describe Corsica only in geographic terms would be a sin. It would be to forget the variety of landscapes between the centre and the coast. It would be to ignore the variations of coastal landscapes alternating tormented and rocky creeks on the one hand with the majestic beaches of fine sand on the other. It would also be to forget the acute awareness of the senses in both spring and autumn, when you travel through the mountains and along the beaches and when you behold the immense diversity of flora and fauna

Yes, a mountain "in the sea"!  It is a truly unique countryside! A challenge to our ordinary geographical references. Go cross-country skiing in the morning and water-skiing in the afternoon. It only takes 45 minutes to drive from one to the other! Yes it is possible, with all the wealth of this country

Magic but rough country nonetheless, where snow squalls leave deep snowdrifts in a few hours in the Bavella region.  Or when the wind starts whistling through Pertusato's lighthouse. The mountain and the sea in Corsica may be just as dangerous as the high mountain and the open sea in other places. Just like the country, people are rough but rich in their culture and in their traditions. And just as with nature, if you know how to listen to them, they will make for you share their wealth and their passion
