"Banchina Dogana", under the city wall is closest to the old town (Piazzetta Civica). We recommend a visit to Bombarde beach and Lazzaretto beach.

In the background lies the ancient village founded around the mines of lead and zinc. Mines active in the 18th century until 1962. Argentiera is a wonderful example of industrial archaeology.
