Details About Portoferraio

With its lemon-yellow buildings, Portoferraio is among the most elegant and delightful of the old Mediterranean port towns. Beyond the capital lies an island of great natural beauty. Elba has more than fifty beaches tucked away in the many coves and bays on her 90 miles of coastline. The hills are covered with pine forests and wildflowers. The distinctive scent of maquis fills the air, and the sparkling blue waters are inviting.
