getting around on the island
The
island has a good road network. The most
important resorts are well indicated and easy
to reach along tarmac roads.
We advise you to drive carefully along
the western coast from Marciana Marina to Campo
nellElba and on the eastern coast from
Porto Azzurro to Cavo because the road is narrow
and there are sharp bends.
If you decide to visit the island without
your own means of transport you can rent a car,
a motor-cycle, a scooter, a bicycle or a boat
from one of the rent agencies on the island,
or you can use public transport such as buses and taxis.
In summer it is not allowed to drive in the
centre of some towns from 6 p.m. to 12 a.m..

There are
many garages on the island qualified to carry
out car repairs and assist motorists in the
event of breakdowns.
Car fuel (unleaded petrol, diesel) is available
at any of the island’s 19 petrol stations,
run by the various oil companies.
Liquid propane gas is not available
on the island.
Campers are not allowed to stop outside assigned camping
areas.
Every kind of free camping ( you can be fined
even if you picnic on a table or stop your caravan
on its rests) is forbidden both by the Ordinances
of the City Council and by the Rules of the
Tuscan Archipelago National Park. The only areas
allowed for parking, filling up and discharging
waste (besides campsites, of course) are in
Porto Azzurro (the area near the graveyard),
in Rio Marina (Cavo) and in Campo nellElba
(the area near the stadium).
It is requested for people exercising
land rover activities to observe that it is
strictly forbidden and legislated by Law n.
48/94 through all pathways, fire paths and forest
paths. For further information, please contact
the National Park office: www.islepark.it
