This island is also called "Mountain in the Sea", because the landscape is extremely mountainous, and its highest peak reaches as much as 2,710 meters.
There is no industry on it, there is no pronounced agriculture, except for some vineyards and olive groves. The island lives exclusively from tourism because it offers a pleasant climate, beautiful beaches and serious systems of mountain trails for active holidays. Corsica is the fourth largest island in the Mediterranean and the largest island that has nothing to do with volcanoes. It covers an area of 8,600 square kilometers and administratively belongs to France because it is located in the north of the Mediterranean between the Ligurian and Tyrrhenian Seas.
One of the most popular destinations on the island is, depending on who pronounces it, Girolata or Girolata (Girolata), a hidden treasure of the Mediterranean.
In the northwestern part of Corsica is the most beautiful bay in the world. It is home to two nature reserves that are on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Nature reserves can be reached only by boat, and the whole bay is known for its sharp rocks, "terrible" cliffs and numerous bays. This dramatic setting, with a small village surrounded by the sea, which climbs high mountains, creates a very impressive picturesque location.
Girolata has about 200 inhabitants, and in the village, there are several sights to visit. These are the fortress and the tower that symbolically preserve this destination. The greatest attraction of this place is the rich flora and fauna, as well as the crystal clear sea.
The place is ideal for mooring yachts and boats. Sandy beach on the one hand and its rich history and culture are just some of the content of this magical island. Although small, the village has a number of tourist facilities, including accommodation and restaurants. In case everything is full, there are numerous boat trips from the surrounding islands, so there is no excuse not to visit. Girolata, a hidden treasure of the Mediterranean, turns from a very quiet village into a successful tourist destination in the summer season.
