The 10 most beautiful sunsets on the Island of Elba 🌅

Where to see the sunset on Elba?

In my opinion, the most beautiful sunsets on the Island of Elba are those that can be admired along the Costa del Sole, the stretch of road south-west and west of the Island and in particular from after Fetovaia to Sant'Andrea.
In addition to these however, Elba offers many unique spots in which to admire the sunset, the choice is yours 🙂

1. On the rocks in Pomonte

Right at the end of the small village's seafront, the cliff rises and offers many flat granite stones on which you can enjoy an improvised aperitif with an unforgettable flavour!

2. The old mule track which connects Pomonte and Chiessi

It is a dirt path, at times made of granite steps, located in an elevated position compared to the main road from which you can admire the sun diving into the sea behind the silhouette of Corsica. Priceless!

3. On the rocks in Chiessi

Also in this case, at the end of the walk that runs along the pebble beach on one side and the historic stone houses on the other, if you continue (without effort) on the cliff that slopes gently down to the sea, you will find yourself in front of a spectacular spectacle. timeless!

4. Patresi and Colle d'Orano

Here on days with good visibility you will feel like you can touch the island of Capraia with your finger. Leave the car along the road and take one of the dirt roads you'll notice, nature will take care of the rest!

5. Cape St. Andrew

This is perhaps the most evocative sunset on the island. Immersed in the so-called 'lunar cliff', you will really feel like you are on another planet! From the beach take the walkway along the cliff delimited by ropes, you can go either left or right, the show is guaranteed.

6. White Chief

The pink sunset on the island, is characterized precisely by the particular light which, reflecting on the white stones of the beach, creates a truly atmosphere romantic! It offers its best in the months of June and July 😉

7. Procchio beach

One of the most comfortable but equally spectacular spots in which to enjoy the 'golden hour'. You can organize an aperitif on the beach, getting everything you need from the various bars and mini markets along the seafront. Enjoy!

8. Biodola Beach

Scenario similar to that enjoyed from Procchio, absolutely not to be missed! Here you can get a beer at Bar Maitu and toast to sun diving into the sea!

9. Scaglieri beach

A few steps from the adjacent Biodola, it is a perfect setting for an aperitif and why not also to continue the evening with a dinner directly in one of the restaurants right on the beach!

10. Volterraio (above Portoferraio)

It requires about 20/30 minutes of climbing on foot, but once you get to the top you will be rewarded with a beautiful view and a wonderful sunset over the sea.
