Cavo Beach

Rio

The town of ancient Roman origin with the long beach.

Cable derives its name from caput, meaning promontory. The ancient Roman origin is evidenced by the remains of a domus found on the nearby promontory of Capo Castello. The village's long beach stretches from the jetty behind the marina to the rocky promontory topped by Villa Tonietti. Two breakwaters protect the lido and provide space on the rocks. From the beach, the view sweeps over Piombino and the small island of Palmaiola, which is only 3 km away.
