Famed as the birthplace of Napoleon Bonaparte, Corsica is only fourth to other island in the Mediterranean Sea in terms of area. Located off the western coast of Italy, Southeastern fold of France and to the north of Island of Sardinia, separated from it by the Strait of Bonifacio, Corsica falls among one of the 26 régions of France. Though officially Corsica is a "territorial collective", implying that it has slightly more far-reaching powers than other French régions, but for the most part its status is quite similar to that of the other régions.
The elongated coastline of Corsica extending up to 1,000 km harbors more than 200 enchanting beaches, which have enamored millions of tourists since ages. The Corsican landscape is predominantly mountainous with Monte Cinto as the highest peak at 2706m and 20 other summits of more than 200 m.
