Yacht Charter in Tuscany

A sailing holiday is the only way to discover the charms of Elba and the nearby islands of the Tuscan archipelago.

Start your sailing holiday from Punta Ala or Scarlino on the west coast of Italy and explore the enchanting Tuscan islands. This is a popular sailing holiday destination and Elba, the largest and most beautiful island in the archipelago, has an indented coastline sheltering many attractive harbours and anchorages.

You may end up staying longer than you planned on your yacht charter holiday just exploring the bays and harbours on Elba, seduced by the charm and beauty of this island that was home to the exiled Napoleon. However don't miss the other islands of the Tuscan archipelago, including Gorgona, Capraia, Montecristo, Giglio and Giannutri, dramatic islands rising steeply from the sea.

The islands form convenient stepping stones between the Tuscan coastline and Corsica, allowing you to combine the flavours of Italy and France on your sailing holiday. Explore the east coast of Corsica before heading back to the islands or Tuscan mainland.
