Porto di Ponza

Porto di Ponza sits on the charming island of Ponza, a volcanic gem off the Lazio coast where colorful stacked houses tumble down to the waterfront. It's a lively, well-used marina with the kind of atmosphere you'd expect from a popular Mediterranean island — expect some buzz in summer and prices to match. From here you're steps away from Ponza's famous sea caves, crystal-clear coves, and a town that genuinely rewards wandering.
