When to rent a villa in South Corsica

South Corsica is a Mediterranean paradise, but its climate can vary significantly depending on the time of year. If you're looking to experience warm weather and long days, June to September is the perfect time to visit. The summer months bring average highs of 28°C (82°F) and plenty of sunshine, making it ideal for beach activities, swimming, and water sports. July and August are the peak tourist months, but if you don't mind the crowds, this is a great time to enjoy the island's vibrant atmosphere.

If you prefer milder weather and smaller crowds, consider visiting South Corsica in the shoulder season, from April to May or September to October. These periods offer pleasant temperatures, ranging from 18°C (64°F) to 22°C (72°F), with fewer tourists and a more relaxed atmosphere. The spring and autumn months are also ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, cycling, and exploring the island's scenic villages. If you're looking for a truly peaceful experience, consider visiting in the winter months, from November to March, when the temperatures drop to around 12°C (54°F) and the crowds disappear. This is a great time to enjoy the local cuisine, wine, and culture, and to explore the island's hidden gems without the hustle and bustle of the peak season.
