September is a wonderful time to visit Corsica, when the island is quieter, the days remain long and sunny, and the sea is still beautifully warm. Often described as the island’s ‘golden month’, September is perfect for enjoying Corsica’s fine sandy beaches, clear blue skies and turquoise waters away from the summer crowds. And for those looking to make the most of the final weeks of summer, late August offers the same appeal, making this an ideal time for a last-minute Corsican escape.
