An ideal climate
The September climate in Corsica is generally considered ideal for seaside holidays. The island enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate in late summer and early autumn, making it a popular period for holidaymakers looking for tranquillity and an extension of summer. Temperatures begin to drop, but remain pleasant, generally not exceeding 28°C. In the mountains, the cooler weather makes itself felt, with the sun setting earlier and earlier each day, marking the transition between the seasons. This gentle atmosphere creates an overall harmony, making this one of the most pleasant times of the year.
This characteristic post-season climate offers more pleasant temperatures overall, allowing the more adventurous to enjoy the Mediterranean Sea, which is a little cooler but just as pleasant as at the height of the season. It's not just a question of a gentler swim, but if you're keen on hiking in the mountains, you've found the ideal time to don your hiking boots.

Outdoor activities and walks for all levels
Activities and walks in Corsica offer a contrasting experience between summer and September. We've already mentioned the differences in climate, but it's important to note that September also brings a notable change in cultural opportunities. Summer holidaymakers have already packed their bags, which means that visits to cultural sites and establishments are considerably reduced.
Visiting Corsica in September means taking full advantage of all the island's charms and attractions, while being immersed in an environment where life seems to slow down. A land as wild and mountainous as Corsica deserves to be explored in several stages. If you want to discover the island like a local, take the time to immerse yourself in the beauty of each region, each offering its own unique charm.
Despite the earlier sunset, hiking is just as accessible and even more enjoyable in September, without the oppressive daylight heat of summer. Thanks to the milder, more pleasant temperatures, you can take full advantage of nature and discover the island's most magnificent panoramas, while leaving with some memorable souvenirs. However, it's essential to keep an eye on the weather forecasts, as this period marks the return of precipitation to the mountains. So, it's important not to venture out on the GR20 paths in risky conditions.
