The beach has a sandy texture that's not too fine, but it's still perfect because it doesn't get blown away by the wind. It's located facing the Sanguinaires and Ajaccio islands, and it's a beautiful, spacious beach.

On a Sunday afternoon in August, we visited the beach and found it to be almost empty, which was quite enjoyable. Additionally, for those who are interested, the view of the airport's take-offs was decent.

The beach boasts a lovely expanse of sand and crystal-clear water. Parking is readily available and despite the crowds, you can still find a peaceful spot to relax. Additionally, there are convenient amenities nearby such as a bar, souvenir shop, and supermarket. Compared to its neighboring Agosta beach, this one tends to attract more visitors.
