A long arc of white quartz sand sheltered by umbrella pines on the southwest coast of Corsica near Porto-Vecchio, with shallow turquoise water protected from Atlantic swell by offshore granite islets. The combination of pine-fringed dune and crystalline water places it consistently among the highest-rated beaches in Mediterranean Europe. The beach faces south-southwest and benefits from afternoon sun without the shadow issues affecting narrower coves.
