This made up of 7 Isles: Gorgona, Capraia, Elba, Pianosa, Montecristo, Giglio and Giannutri. The Uniqueness of these pearls, is that one can enjoy them all year round. In fact, if in the summer one is attracted to opt for a weekend trip here you will surely find history, culture and nature.

The National park of the Tuscan archipelago, is the largest marine park in Europe (56,766 hectares of sea and 17,887 hectares of land). It comprises of the 7 islands of the archipelago, and also some of the minor islets and rocks. Like a necklace they are spread out (150 km separates the two extreme isles) and like pearls so they are different one from the other. Each preserves a trace of their history, being, unique and original to themselves, but with a common denominator: their natural beauty.

The “clain” is of course the sea. A sea wich has seen the passage of ships from every sea, from those of the Etruscan to the Greeks, from the Romans to the Saracens, from the Pisan to the Spanish. Then came the French, English, Germans always faster and more contemporary. Todays traffic consists also of Ferries and cruise ships.

The sea however has remained the same, with its calm and sudden storms, capricious and unpredictable like only the Mediterranean can be. But also warm and welcoming, ancient but always renewed, like every wave that bathes those many beaches in it.

The Archipelago’s climate is typically Mediterranean, with warm summers (mainly dry, even if the humidity factor is felt). Winters are fairly mild. Rains are typical of mid-seasons and winter. Summers are drought-like. Winds are typical coastal breezes but become somewhat varied in high sea. In summer there is a predominance of east, mistral and north wind, but in winter no lack of strong winds like libeccio, north-east, south, westerly and scirocco.
