Things to see on the Island of Elba
Everything at your fingertips
From the apartments and the Villa Raffaelli you can reach various places of historical and landscape interest, ideal for a holiday full of culture, sport and entertainment.
The island of Elba is a paradise for sea lovers, it is true: in fact it is possible to find beaches of fine sand, ideal for children, but also beaches with pebbles and hidden coves, as well as caves, all to visit for lovers of snorkeling and more.
Not just sea
Besides the sea, there is much more to do on the Island of Elba: from trekking to walks on Mount Capanne (with a height of over 1000 meters, from which you can see the islands of Montecristo, Capraia, Pianosa, Gorgona and also Corsica), full of paths, woods and rocks, to the ruins of the Volterraio fortress (almost 400 meters above sea level) from which you can admire a breathtaking view of the most beautiful coasts of the island, especially the Gulf of Portoferraio. Even from the beautiful town with terrace overlooking the sea of Capoliveri you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the coast of the island
A bit of history
After having seen the most beautiful views of the Island of Elba, you can go to visit Napoleon’s house, which is also very interesting from a historical point of view.
Then there are the mines of mineral extraction to visit: an educational and interesting tour for young and old. From there, you can also think of taking a bath in Cala Seregola, a truly characteristic red sand beach.
For the little ones
For those who want to entertain their children, we recommend a trip to the Elba Aquarium, a place where children can admire sharks, sea turtles and many other species of fish and birds.
On the way to the aquarium, stop for shopping and strolling around the small towns of the towns you will meet: it will be a unique experience.
.. and finally
If you love Golf, the 9-hole green (with a panoramic view) of the Acquabona Golf Club is really close to the apartments and the Villa Raffaelli.
In the surrounding area it is also possible to follow the Elba wine route, as well as visiting various producers.
For those who prefer pure relaxation, among the apartments and villa Raffaelli and Portoferraio you can pamper yourself in a spa at the Terme di San Giovanni, with thermarium, wellness and beauty treatments, even organic.
