Plage d'Argent, Sandy beach in Sartène, France.
This beach features a white sand shoreline with turquoise waters, surrounded by ochre rocks and small hidden coves along the Gulf of Murtoli.
The beach lies near the archaeological site of Cauria, marking a connection to ancient settlements that once inhabited the Corsican coastline.
The name Plage d'Argent, meaning Silver Beach, derives from its distinctive white sand that reflects light with silver tints.
Visitors can reach the beach through a 25-minute walk from Tralicetu parking area, following a marked path along the Mediterranean coast.
An endemic Corsican fauna inhabits the elevated dune system above the beach, where a small stream bordered by tamarisk trees meets the sea.
