Spiaggia Sansone

Drop anchor off Sansone Beach, one of Elba's most celebrated stretches of coastline on the north side of Portoferraio. The beach is made up of small white shingle with famously clear, vivid water over a spectacular sea bed — the kind of place that makes you want to stay far longer than planned. It's a straightforward anchorage that puts you right in front of one of the island's most photogenic spots.
