From the village a path leads inland, providing nature lovers with tralils to walk in complete solitude, as far as the "little fountains" of spring water and, beyond, to the "signal" where a ravine allows a view of the sea facing Corsica. Another trail leads to the "small lake", a pool formed in the crater of an extinct volcano. The rare beautyof the island can be best appreciated from the sea: dotting the coast the island presents charming coves, ancient watch towers, islets where seagulls nest. Particularly beautiful is "Cala Rossa", remains of craters made up fire-red rock, while the bay surrounding the port is excellently suited for wind-surfing, the coast offers interesting underwater excursions, because of the abundance and variety of marine flora and fauna.Thanks to the Capraia's mild climate all the year round, each season is suitable for a visit to the island. In spring, you can admire its full flowering and the passage of many migratory birds; in Summer, you can enjoy its uncontaminated waters, especially if you love sea-sports; in Winter, you can thoroughly immerse yourself in its vague and mysterious atmosphere.
In the Island of Elba and Archipelago, there is tourist accommodation available in hotels, farm holiday, farmhouse, residence self-catering accommodation, b&b, rooms for rent, holiday homes, camp sites and tourist villages.
