Mediterranean view


Title: Mediterranean view

Description:

This image of the western Mediterranean was taken by Sentinel-3A's Ocean and Land Colour Instrument on 16 October 2016. The islands of Corsica and Sardinia can be seen in the west with the coast of Tuscany and the island of Elba to the northeast. The waters along the east coast of Corsica and along the Italian coast are coloured by discharge from the land following recent heavy rainfall.
