One of the Mediterranean's most accessible, yet least spoilt islands, with some of its best beaches and most beautiful mountain scenery, Corsica is an increasingly popular destination, whether you're travelling with one of the specialist companies listed in the book or completely independently. Walking trails, detailed town write-ups and fully up-to-date hotel and restaurant listings are complemented by frequent nuggets of insight to make this the essential guidebook choice. The author, social anthropologist David Abram is one of Rough Guide's most versatile writers.
