Corsica, any must visit areas?
As per thread title, currently sunning myself in a beach front villa - Pallombaggia (SE of the island) Tried some diving yesterday but decided the water isn’t up to temperature yet so looking for excursion ideas! Will probably mooch around Porto - Vecchio later but all ideas welcome.
I’ve googled ‘WW2 sites’ but nothing came up, other than underwater wreck sites (again, too cold!)
Ps it’s absolutely beautiful here so doing nothing is also very appealing.

One of the attractions! We are okay, but it’s nice to get away. Guess you know the beaches N and S of PV.
Otherwise, I’d get up in to the forests and mountains inland to the W of PV. Parts of the GR20 and Mare a Mare walks, Conca, Levie, Zonza, Santa Lucie di Tallano areas. Some fantastic peaks. AIGUILLES DE BAVELLA. Bonifacio is also worth a visit.
From memory the clouds build afternoon so worth having a waterproof if venturing in to the mountains. Otherwise it’s always been hot, so have enjoyed a half day walk and then down to the beach and sea to cool off.
Oysters? Up the coast to Aleria area.
As mentioned in PM, for WW2 - CWGC at Biguglia near Bastia. Small cemetery: I think mainly air crew and sailors from memory.
