Full description
Enjoy a day on a boat discovering the coastal beauty of theIsland of Elba, reach the most beautiful coves and bays, and dive in to snorkel in the crystal-clear waters.
With a private tour you can relax and spend time in total privacy and tranquillity together with whomever you wish. Accompanying you will be a Tuscany Region Environmental Guide, always ready to lead you in theobservation of flora and fauna and to describe the environment in its most interesting aspects.
What we will do
The meeting point is the small harbour of Margidore, in Capoliveri ( LI) on the Island of Elba. Here you will meet the nature guide and, once you have settled on board, you will set sail westwards, thus beginning the boat tour to the Pomonte Shipwreck.
During the cruise, you’ll be able to admire some of Elba’s most beautiful sights, such as the Grotta Azzurra and Cavoli Beach, which lies within a stunning cove surrounded by Mediterranean scrub.
But first, you simply won’t be able to resist a dip in its crystal-clear waters! We’ll stop for some snorkelling at Laconella Beach, the Grotta dell’Acqua and Fetovaia Bay, where we’ll stop for lunch (not included – please bring your own) .
We’ll then continue on to Pomonte Beach, whose seabed is home to the wreck of the Elviscot, an Italian cargo ship that sank after crashing onto the rocks in 1972. Today, the wreck has become the natural habitat of numerous marine species, making the area one of Elba’s favourite diving spots, but you can also admire it simply by wearing a mask and snorkel to snorkel just below the surface, following the guide’s instructions and descriptions.
In the afternoon, we’ll also stop for a swim and some snorkelling near the Scoglietto della Triglia and the Isolotto della Corbella. We’re due to return to Margidore harbour at 5. 00 pm, making for a total duration of 8 hours.
