The night of the falling stars. Among the most fascinating of the year: the sky dotted with white lights, the breeze of the sea… Is that how you imagine to spend the Saint Lawrence night 2017? In this case, your destination is Portoferraio, on Elba Island.
Here’s why. And how to spend the day.
Before the spectacle of falling stars, you have a day to discover the many attractions of the main town of Elba Island. In particular, in Portoferraio in one day you can see:
To see these places, you’ll walk a lot. After, you’ll surely be hungry. In the old town centre of Portoferraio, there are several cosy restaurants where you can taste the typical dishes of Elba Island, such as stoccafisso alla riese, gurguglione and cacciucco.
And here you might object: why there isn’t a beach among the things to see? For this, you have to wait until the evening.
The spiaggia delle Ghiaie is one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. It is about 170 meters long, with white sand and blue sea, located near the centre of Portoferraio and, indeed, it is easy to reach on foot. Among the other things, according to a legend, the Argonauts landed here.
And it is here that, when the sun is set and the falling stars will begin to cross the sky, vacationers will meet for a plunge in the sea.
