Weather in Elba Island

The climate on Elba is typical of most marine climates, boasting mild weather even throughout the winter period.

Days of rain are reasonably scarce, particularly throughout the summer season.

The most prevailing wind on the island is known as lo scirocco (south easterly gale), which is not a particularly strong wind, known to alternate regularly with the fresher north westerly maestrale (mistral), making afternoons at the sea's side more comfortable.

The winds known as "libeccio" and "ponente" (respectively south westerly and westerly gales), although less frequent, are capable of agitating the seas to a point that navigation to the mainland becomes impossible. Fortunately, this is a rare occurance, taking place only once or twice a year.

The icey cold winds known as the "tramontana" and "grecale" are winds that prevail from the north and north-east respectively. Fortunately, both of these winds are quite rare but none the less, the island's formation is such that a shelter from these more tedious winds, can always be found.
