Ile Rousse, the most Corsican of the Balagne towns
Did you know that Île-Rousse takes its name from the reddish colour of its rocks? Also known as the "Paoline city", because it was founded under the republic of the famous Pascal Paoli, the town is now one of the most popular destinations in Haute-Corse. And with good reason, Ile Rousse has everything you'd expect from Corsica: it's a charming seaside town with colourful architecture and its own beach right in the centre of town. In its pedestrianised streets, bars, ice-cream parlours, souvenir shops, local produce stalls and typical restaurants immediately immerse you in a warm Mediterranean atmosphere. This small town of 3,000 inhabitants also has a reputation for remaining very authentic, unlike others that have been denatured by tourism. The reason for this? There's a real local population living here all year round. In summer, you'll recognise them as the boules players on the Place Paoli or the shopkeepers and restaurateurs who welcome you. And that makes all the difference!
