    Lovely water, great views and there is a cave pass through that leads to the adjacent Spiaggia Padulella. Very clear waters.

    You can walk up or go by cable car. The walk looks great but not for the fainthearted we went by cable car which was a great experience stunning views especially from the top. Highly recommended really pleased we did this trip whilst on Elba

    Difficult to park close to the beach but with nice sand and a great bar close to the beach.
    The water is very shallow so it’s a good place for games in the water and good for small kids.

    Even in September, a bit after the high season, this beach is packed. There are 3 or 4 companies renting umbrellas and lounge chairs. Between them, they cover a great percent of the sand. However, services are convenient (restaurant, buffet, bar, changing areas, toilet). We had to park quite a distance away, up a steep hill. That said, the sand and the sea here are spectacular!

    With the majority of the beaches I went to being rocky, this fine sand beach was a welcome relief for my feet. It is too commercial for my liking but the water is great and the kids liked renting a pedal boat with built in slide.

    Beautiful water on a pebble beach, nice snorkeling area available. Not a very big beach, most is private renting out beach beds and umbrellas.
    Only negative is a nice long walk down to the beach (have to go back up later)

    Great sand beach with clear water. You can walk very far in the water!! Lots of tourists and families, so not the most peaceful place.
