Other islands in the Tuscany Archipelago

Giglio (details here)

small but nice- a good tip. 35 nm in the south-east of Elba. Only a few nautical miles from the mainland. At the east-side a small, often over-crowded harbour, which is also used for ferries, which are coming permanently. Who is able to go to the island out of the main season, he has to go!!
"Giglio Castello" at the top of the mountain is a real small pirate town. You can take the bus to get there, or you can use the direct footpath.
Anchor possibilities southern of the harbour.

Giannutri

A private island. Anchor possibilities in the South of the island. Very deep (60 meters).

Monte Christo

forbidden to enter- nature reserve

Pianosa

A former prisoner-island. You need a special permission to enter the island.

Capraia

It is a small island on the long way to the North of Corsica.
