Plage de Vetricella, Beach in Olmeto, Corsica, France
Plage de Vetricella is a sandy beach approximately 2 kilometers long on Corsica's southern coast with clear water backed by green mountains. The wide shoreline curves gently in a bay shape and provides ample space for swimmers and sunbathers.
This coastal area held importance in ancient times with evidence of Roman and Greek settlements discovered through archaeological work in the region. These findings show that the shore has served as a significant place for human activity for thousands of years.
The restaurants near this beach serve traditional Corsican dishes made with fresh seafood that local fishermen bring to shore each day.
This beach has restrooms, beach chair rentals, umbrella services, and lifeguard coverage during summer months. Arriving early in the day helps you find a good spot, especially on weekends.
Natural rock formations create small pools at low tide where visitors can observe marine life up close. These shallow areas are especially popular with families who enjoy spotting small fish and sea creatures.
