An excursion to Capraia means you get the chance to admire the beautiful and truly unique coast of the island.nbsp;Before you actually get to the town itself the boat stops in at the beautiful Rossa Cove, where the suggestive red rocks, formed by sediments after thousands of years of magma eruptions, remind us once again that this is the only island in the Tuscan Archipelago to have vulcanic origins.

The moment you land in the tiny port you will see it is full of restaurants, shops, diving centres and agencies where you can book an excursion by boat or dinghy if you want to explore those parts of the island that you can reach only by sea.

Just follow the one and only road suitable for vehicles in Capraia and you will get to the scenic point where the Tower is or the tiny, old part of the town that is made up of stone roads and many anient churches.

Keep going and you will get to Punta Bella Vista from where the breathtaking view stretches right down as far as the water's edge. If you choose to go down one of the numerous, tiny streets that start here, you will get to the rocks from where you can dive into the crystal clear sea around Capraia.
