Marciana Marina, in terms of size, is the smallest municipality on the entire island. Barely five square kilometers of lush nature that develop around the beautiful waterfront-which was completed in the early 1900s-and its squares, which are rightly considered real living rooms overlooked by elegant, well-kept homes. Its origins are lost in the island's earliest history, with evidence dating to the Etruscan and Roman periods.

A renowned location for the production of frank and sincere wine, exported mainly to the ports of Liguria and Tuscany since the seventeenth century, in the 1970s Marciana Marina found its rightful place among the most renowned and sought-after tourist resorts by the international jet-set, not only in the summer period. Today, enchanting villas rise in its territory, virtually invisible to prying eyes, nestled in the green rolling hills or sheer along the coast.

Marciana Marina, with its stunning backdrop of Mount Jupiter to the west and Mount Perone to the east, represents one of the most striking views of the island of Elba. Attractive is its landscape for those arriving by car from the road that connects it with Portoferraio. Even more fascinating is to contemplate it from the sea, with the villages of Poggio and Marciana appearing embedded in Mount Capanne in a veritable postcard of extraordinary beauty.

During the summer, there are many opportunities for recreation and entertainment offered by the many venues overlooking the sea. But Marciana Marina is sought after above all for its tranquility, for its calm and placid lifestyle, appreciated by the most distinguished guests who like to mingle among the people without the worry of being disturbed as they stroll through Elba's largest pedestrian zone.

Famous is the quality of the restaurants scattered almost everywhere in the town, from those overlooking the waterfront to those that characterize the ancient streets behind it.
