How to get to Corsica?
By boat or by plane, it's never been easier to come to the "beautiful island"!
There are many ways to get to Corsica. The most interesting now in terms of price are flights with Easyjet.
There are weekly direct flights to Bastia, Calvi and Figari from principal airports in the UK, and other European cities throughout the summer season.
If you are coming from the UK, a simple and cost effective journey out of the main holiday season is to take the Eurostar to Paris and then the Easyjet flight from Paris to Bastia. There is a direct connecting train from Paris Gare du Nord (where the Eurostar terminates) to Paris Charles de Gaulle airport (for easyjet), taking only 40 minutes.
Also, don't forget the ferry. A very comfortable and relaxing way to travel to Corsica is by ferry from the French ports of Marseille, Nice and Toulons, or the Italian port of Livorno. For more details, see below or contact Europe Active as we can book your ferry journey for you.
