Frugoso Beach is located at the northernmost tip of Elba Island, situated between Capo Vita and the Capo Castello promontory (for this reason, the beach is often also referred to by the name of the beautiful promontory).
The main beach stretches over 200 meters and is composed of small gray or gray-and-white pebbles, interspersed with sand patches. Depending on the spring storms, there may be a significant presence of posidonia on the beach.
On the left, the beach extends for at least another 240 meters towards Capo Vita, ending with large stones and smooth pebbles shaped by the sea, making this area less frequented. Some lovely villas are located near the sea.
On the opposite side, near Capo Castello, after a cluster of rocks, there is a small beach about thirty meters long.
Facing north, the beach boasts extraordinarily clear water when southern winds blow. The area is also ideal for underwater excursions along the coast, even just with a mask and fins.
Surrounded by lush Mediterranean vegetation, it gives off a wild vibe, but it actually offers numerous services and is quite easy to reach.
The view stretches across the Piombino Channel, with the Isolotto dei Topi in the foreground, easily reachable by canoe or boat (450 meters away). In the background, you can see the mainland with the city of Piombino.
Above the beach, along the path that leads down to the sea, there is a paid parking area with a bar.
The beach is easily accessible by following the seafront of the small village of Cavo and taking Via Bernardo Procchi. At the end of the road, near the Capo Castello pine forest and the parking area, there is access to the beach.
