Weekend on Elba Island: 4 ideas for your journey

You have two days for your holiday. You have chosen the destination but not the itinerary. To enjoy your weekend on Elba Island, there are four ideas that will allow you to organize this two-days holiday.

1. Portoferraio and Capoliveri

They are two of Elba Island main towns. During a weekend, you could see Portoferraio on the first day and Capoliveri on the second day. If this is your choice, here you have two useful itineraries:

• Things to see in Portoferraio in one day: the old town centre, Roman mansion, Napoleon’s house, the most beautiful beaches of Portoferraio
• Things to see in Capoliveri in one day: Forte Focardo, Santuario della Madonna delle Grazie, Monte Calamita, Abside di San Michele, Lacona beach, Naregno beach

2. The most beautiful beaches

For you, weekend is synonym for white sand, sun, sea and relaxation. We have a suitable itinerary for you: it will bring you to see the most beautiful beaches of Elba Island, such as Padulella, delle Ghiaie, Capo Bianco, Fetovaia, Cavoli.

This is a 10 legs itinerary, it’s difficult to see them all in two days but it’s recommended to see more beaches than you can: you will not find places such these anywhere.

3. Anello occidentale

How can you admire some of the most beautiful panoramas of Elba Island in two days? There’s a solution and its name is Anello occidentale dell’isola d’Elba: it’s the coastal road from Procchio to Marina di Campo. You can travel by car, camper, motorcycle, cycicle.

4. Excursions

Movement, nature and hiking boots: these three characteristics describe your perfect holiday. Why should this weekend be different? Elba Island best excursions are five: monte Capanne, islands near Elba, hermitages, Grande traversata elbana, Anello occidentale.
