The Easter holidays can also allow you to leave at low prices, with more advantageous rates. This is particularly the case in Corsica, where there are many tourists for this start of the school holidays, but we are far from the summer crowds, as in Balagne, between Calvi and Île-Rousse.

It is one of the jewels of Corsica. La Balagne (Haute-Corse), the ramparts of Calvi, Île-Rousse, the magic of its beaches. Some are already indulging in kayaking, paddleboarding, and the first tourists are arriving, like a family from the Jura taking advantage of the pre-season. They had dreamed of visiting the island for 10 years. “We were advised this season to have a little less people, to be able to enjoy more”said a tourist.

Booking forecasts up 7%

The Île-Rousse little train is already crossing the city center with its first tourists. For this trader, the season is off to a good start. “For the moment, we see that there is still a lot of passage “, she describes. But for other traders, inflation is a concern for the season. Booking forecasts in France are up 7% for spring break, compared to last year.
