Elba by car, motorbike, scooter or camper

If you choose to visit Elba by car, motorcycle, or scooter, it is advisable to drive more cautiously along the western route from Marciana Marina to Marina di Campo and the eastern route from Porto Azzurro to Cavo, where the road becomes narrower and the curves more frequent.

Fuel Stations

There are 19 fuel stations (unleaded gasoline, diesel) on Elba, operated by various petroleum companies and distributed across the island. However, for those using LPG or methane-powered vehicles, no stations provide this type of service. In case of any issues, you can rely on a good number of mechanical workshops ready to assist you promptly.

infoelba recommends: If you plan to drive along the western loop, make sure to check your fuel gauge before leaving Marciana Marina: you won’t find any fuel stations until you reach Marina di Campo!

Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

Several charging stations for electric vehicles are installed on the Island of Elba.

Camper Parking Areas

Campers and caravans must comply with current regulations on camping. Camping with these vehicles is only allowed in designated and authorized areas. Outside of these areas, free camping is strictly prohibited: even small actions such as placing a picnic table outside or using the camper's support legs can result in fines.

Camper and caravan services

Be cautious if you plan to engage in off-road driving: it is strictly prohibited and regulated under L.R.T. 48/94 on all trails, firebreak paths, and forest tracks. For more information, contact the Tuscan Archipelago National Park Authority.

infoelba recommends: Before entering historic town centers, carefully check the signs: during the summer months, some municipalities enforce Limited Traffic Zones (ZTL), restricting vehicle access.
