Plage dolce Vita, Sand beach on Route des Sanguinaires, Ajaccio, France.

Beneath the water surface, the beach's rock formations create natural reefs where several Mediterranean fish species congregate and remain visible even to casual snorkelers. These fish concentrations occur due to currents and crevices between the rocks.
