Cap Corse Weather

Breathtaking views, a relaxing atmosphere, and a spectacular climate are only three of the reasons why Cap Corse is a popular holiday destination. Corsica boasts a spectacular Mediterranean climate consisting of long summer months and short mild winters. Cap Corse benefits from around 2800 hours of sunshine per year and temperatures can reach up to the 30C mark during the peak summer months. Although Corsica’s heritage is French it is actually located just off the coast of Italy, and Cap Corse is the most northern part of the island. This explains the Mediterranean climate and beautiful year round sunshine that this island is famous for.
