Isola di Capraia

• Arcipelago Toscano

Island of volcanic origin is morphologically mountainous with a steep and jagged coastline, rich in typical Mediterranean vegetation. Towards the end of the eighties, when the penal colony that prevented access to the island was closed, Capraia began to open up to tourism offering all its natural and historical beauty. If you love hiking, the island offers the possibility to take many walks along paths that wind through the Mediterranean maquis; sometimes you will find yourself immersed in the vegetation and the scents of helichrysum, myrtle and rosemary. Ferries run daily departing from Livorno's Porto Mediceo and the journey takes about two and a half hours.
