Argentiera is a wild and barren stretch of coastline, which is particularly awesome because of the abandoned mining village located nearby.
The grey sandy beach has an exceptional view of the wooden skeleton of the mineral washery and entrances to several mine pits, which are immersed in the surrounding countryside.
Plenty of fish and lobsters can be found at this spectacular beach as well as the Corsican gull, which uses the beach as a nesting ground. The beach is perfect for this because of the rocky coastline.
Facilities
Bar at 150 metres.
