Island of Elba

Elba is the third largest Italian island and the largest in the Tuscan Archipelago. The island, Situated at 10 kilometres from the mainland, can be accessed by ferry or hydrofoil in one hour of navigation.

The island has a population of 35.000 divided into eight different towns, 12.000 alone residing at Portoferraio.
