Breath-taking vistas around every corner
The island may seem small but so many delights are waiting to be discovered that one holiday here won’t ever suffice. This wonderful variety of atmospheres, views and landscapes originates from the extreme diversity of Elba.
From the ferrous heart of Ginevro, one of the most beautiful underground mining complexes, to the fabulous crystal clear waters of Capo Sant’Andrea, Elba will inspire the soul and the senses. Savour the beauty of the peaks, such as Mount Capanne, with its panoramic view across the Tuscan Archipelago; follow the bike trails through cool chestnut woods or dive to dramatic shipwrecks on the seabed. The island has so many dimensions and there is more to experience than first meets the eye. Why not seek out Napoleon’s secret rooms and later enjoy an evening of festivals, folklore and gastronomy? You’ll be captivated.
