The principal resort on the island of Corsica, Calvi boasts a profusion of top quality hotels, some stunning beaches and a climate that you could die for. Nestled between the rolling interior of the island, and the blue waters of the Mediterranean, Calvi offers visitors the chance to enjoy the laid back lifestyle of the island of Corsica among some of the most perfect surroundings imaginable.
Aside from the sun kissed beaches that stretch along the Corsican coast around Calvi, the town also has many attractions to interest visitors, including the famous citadel that dominates the skyline, and is visible from miles around. The main tourist area is known as Basse Ville - the low town, where the land meets the sea, and where the majority of hotels are located.
The best times to visit Calvi are during the spring and autumn, when the weather is slightly cooler, and consequently, the countryside is at its most verdant and pretty. If you travel to Corsica during the spring, you will be rewarded by beautiful floral landscapes, while in the autumn, the local wines are released, amid great rejoicing.
