Roads in western Corsica are really dramatic! On the road (D81) from Calvi to Porto. I mean, what roads! We thought we were driving on dramatic roads around Verdon Gorge, but this one in Corsica broke records. The cliffs aren't as steep, but the roads are narrower and worse and cooler! Join us on the roads of western Corsica.

Read moreCould this be the most beautiful beach in Corsica? Ok, we don't know for sure, but Saleccia beach has been mentioned in such contexts and we have to say ... wow, what a beach!

Read moreNow we have arrived in the small town of St Florent in Corsica. "Oh, I want to live here!", I exclaimed when we arrived. Of course I don't, but the spontaneous feeling still gives it a good rating. The guidebook says that St Florent is "almost like a Corsican St Tropez". This is true to an extent - it feels affluent, the outdoor cafes are close to the harbour and there are a lot of luxury yachts. Still, I like this place much more than St Tropez!
Read moreNaturist campsite in Corsica, at Aléria on the east coast. The campsite is on a huge area and the motorhomes, caravans and tents are scattered here and there on the beaches and in the forest. It doesn't really feel like being on a campsite, but rather in a huge natural area. We have positioned ourselves so we have the Mediterranean Sea through the window in front of us - not a bad view! Join us at a naturist campsite in Corsica!

This time we chose to take the ferry to Corsica.
