Translation French Translated by nava91	Target language: French La Corse est "l'Ã®le de beautÃ©", avec ses couleurs contrastantes: bleu comme la vaste mer, vert-foncÃ© comme ses pins laricio, ocre comme ses tours GÃªnoises et rouge comme ses criques. Autrefois dÃ©crite comme "Cette montagne dans la mer", l'Ã®le de Corse, avec plus de 600 miles de plages sableuses, et surmontÃ©e par des pics de 9000 pieds, est situÃ©e au coeur de la mer mÃ©diterranÃ©enne occidentale. Facilement accessible par air et par mer, la Corse est Ã peine Ã 110 miles des cÃ´tes du sud-est de la France et Ã 50 miles des cÃ´tes italiennes.
