The beaches on Elba Island

Barabarca: A sheltered bay with a sandy beach surrounded by Mediterranean forest, about 100 metres from the transparent, emerald open water stretching out towards the west and the peninsula of Capo Stella (Capoliveri).

Cavoli: One of the most renowned beaches on Elba because of its beauty, transparent water and granular beach, about 300 metres long, with a base of white granitic large-grain sand and rocky deposits in some areas. Its name derives from “cavili”, which were square blocks of granite that were at one time extracted from the caves in the area. There are still signs of granite carving above Cavoli, which was ongoing from Roman times right up to the Medieval period, by the inhabitants of Pisa. It is an ideal place for youngsters and those who want to have fun and get the perfect suntan.

The sea bed is sandy and the water extremely clear. There are no facilities on the beach apart from a bar which hires out umbrellas and sunbeds.
