Elba and Capraia

The Park includes the seven islands of the Tuscan Archipelago located in the Tyrrhenian Sea that has become an important cradle for diversity in terms of natural environments. The Sanctuary of Cetaceans was founded here for the continuous presence of marine mammals. Elba, the third largest island in Italy, is a green oasis with its neverending horizons, golden beaches and massive granite rocks immersed in the Mediterranean scrub. This is the ideal place for a relaxing and carefree sailing holiday.
