#4. Enjoying Easter delicacies

Easter traditions also include gastronomy. And if, like us, you have a sweet tooth, you won't want to miss the cacavelli. Typical Easter cakes. 

#5. Take advantage of seasonal produce

Each season has its own products. Do you usually come to Corsica in summer? Then make the most of your spring visit by sampling brocciu. This fresh cheese, made from ewe's or goat's milk, is emblematic of our region and is produced from November to June. Enjoy ambrucciate, fiadone and other brocciu fritters!
