Travelistas.infoThe Elba Guide - Italy

Tucked away in the Gulf of Biodola, Forno is one of the island's most charming little secrets. It's a tiny, golden-sand cove, just over 100 meters long, where pastel-colored houses come right down to the water's edge. The sea here is exceptionally clear and stays shallow for a good way out, making it perfect for families and snorkeling. Because it's so small and sheltered, it has a wonderfully intimate feel, especially at sunset. Be aware that parking is almost non-existent, so your best bet is to arrive on two wheels or take the short 5-minute walk from the end of the road to reach this little slice of paradise.
