San Pietro a Mare Beach
You'll park among the pines and emerge onto a beach wide enough that high tide and low tide feel like different planets. Behind you the river mouth spreads into marshland where herons hunt; ahead, shallow water extends toward Corsica's southern mountains visible on clear days.
