Also of interest here are the people on horseback on the trail near the beach. Their shadows have much more detail than the actual riders

Minor correction.

No deck is so featureless The deck must have an egress through to the hull ! The rudder, the mast, the motor, the bilges, the storage, the anchor, the bollards...
Also this surface is not flat, and a deck is perfectly flat.

It is upside down, this is the hull timbers showing. 20 metres long, six metres wide. modern (eg ww2 and after) bow and stern.

Undocumented wreck ... I've looking through many diving and historical websites.
This site has an interactive map showing places of interest, including wrecks . www.spotmydive.com/en/dive-site/pecorella-pinella-france

Below is the only map available showing notable shipwrecks ( bad quality )

You win. It's a barge wreck. Google Earth Views from above in 2014 and 2020 show it pretty well, and a Google search titled "portigliolo shipwreck"

Not much about it, as it was just a barge, but here is a You Tube Video about it.

Translated from Romanian:

Wrecks from Barge de Portigliolo - CORSE WRECKS - May 2018
"Thirty years ago an Italian barge towed by a tug broke its trailer in a storm. The barge splits in two, one part sinks on the side of Campomoro, and another part continues its drift to run aground on the large beach of Portigliolo. The wreck is easily accessible from the shore, it just skims the surface of the water. The plates are quite sharp and therefore be careful."
