Plage de Lotu, Sandy beach in Saint-Florent, France
Plage de Lotu is a sandy beach on the coast of the Désert des Agriates, stretching along the shore with fine sand and clear blue water. Rocky formations line parts of the shoreline, creating natural features that define the cove.
The beach sits in an area traditionally used by herders and fishermen that remained isolated for centuries. The Désert des Agriates region stayed largely undeveloped unlike many other coastal areas of Corsica.
The beach attracts visitors who come for swimming and relaxation in a secluded setting away from crowds. Families and friends gather here during summer to spend time together by the water.
The beach is accessible only by boat, which departs regularly from Saint-Florent harbor during the main season. Bring sturdy shoes if you plan to walk along the rocky sections near the shoreline.
The beach serves as a starting point for hiking routes that connect to nearby coves through Mediterranean scrub and uneven terrain. These paths link several remote beaches in the region and offer a more adventurous way to explore the coast.
