Is it really crowded in Sardinia and Corsica at the end of August?

Question

Is it stupid the plan a trip around that time?

Answer 1

well being summer over there, there would be a heap over tourists. the 15th of august it the peak of it all.. so seeing as though ur thinking of the end of august.. will prob be ok.

being italy and france its always going to have tourists, thats a given. but the locals would be heading back to skool soon, i think, so yeah.

Answer 2

Don't know about Corsica, but for Sardinia it can be ok, provided that you go after Agust 15th.

Could be much better at the beginning of September, when schools begin and most of the Italians stop their "sea season", but the very end of August it's good anyway.
