In this metal-bearing region, people lived off the extraction of lead, zinc and silver until the closure of the mine in 1963. Set back from the clear waters of the beautiful beaches, the place feels like a Far West ghost town in the shadow of its defunct industrial apparatus: the well, washing plant, warehouses, workers' homes, cinema. Argentiera now has a park for tourism and cultural activities. You can also enjoy the sublime view over the little bay of San Nicola from the top of the hill.
