Beaches on the Island of Elba that are sheltered from the wind

Sheltered beaches depending on what direction the wind is blowing

A gentle sea breeze is to be considered an everyday thing on the Island of Elba, but thanks to the particular conformation of its coastline plus the fact that there are over 200 beaches to choose from, even on a windy day you will easily find a sheltered cove for a relaxing day at the beach.

You are spoilt for choice, all you need to do is choose the the right part of the island depending on the direction of the wind so you can be sure the beach you have chosen is sheltered, that the sea there is calm and crystal clear, and that the sky is blue.

If you're not an expert in the matter, we are delighted to help you!

On a windy day, just click on our special page dedicated to the weather forecast of the Island of Elba and all your questions will be answered. Once you know what wind is blowing, just follow our advice and you will know exactly how to find the beaches that are sheltered from the wind.
