The food of Corsica can best be defined as a fusion of the French and Italian cuisines, due to its' close geographical positions with the two countries. Popular foods such as pizza, pasta, escargot, and éclairs can be found everywhere.

Tourism plays a major role in the Corsican economy. The island's pleasant climate, beautiful mountains and breathtaking coastlines make it a popular destination among the French and other Western Europeans. However, the island has not had the same level of intensive development as other parts of the Mediterranean and is thus relatively unspoiled. Tourism is particularly concentrated in the area around Porto Vecchio and Bonifacio in the south of the island and Calvi in the northwest.
