Elba, Italy cruises

Noted for being the site of Napoleon’s first brief exile, Elba is the largest island in the stunning Tuscan Archipelago, and lies a mere 15 miles from mainland Italy and only 30 miles east of Corsica.

Elba’s colourful houses, forts and Martello tower create a charming scene around main harbour Portoferraio, and the island has developed a reputation for world-class wines you simply have to taste.
