The main beach is sunny and characterized by a mushroom-shaped rock on the north side. On the sides it is flanked by three shaded coves, reachable by swimming or through the rocks, two on the right side and one on the left side. The inlet where the beach is located is protected from the sirocco winds by the promontory that divides the Porticciolo from the Gulf of Ortano.

Geologically interesting stretch of coast, where this small beach opens up. Pebbly, exposed to the open sea (especially to the east winds), little frequented. Very nice environment for the rock formations, for the vine terraces and for a pine overlooking the cliff. Surely the toponym derives from a proper name, perhaps of a landowner in the area.

Topinetti beach is a very particular and unique coast that is located along the eastern side of the island of Elba on the road that leads from Rio Marina to Cavo.The shingle beach and bright black sand, color due to the huge amount of mineral present in the area, is about 200 meters long and offers splendid views of the islands of Cerboli and Plamaiola up to the Tuscan coast and Argentario. On the left side of the beach there are large rocks ranging from white to red through yellow. It is reached by a dirt road about one kilometer long.

Also known as Cala del Telegrafo, the beach is located in an unspoiled bay just 2 km from Cavo and has a lush holm oak forest that reaches down to the sea. It is the beach of the island of Elba closest to the Piombinese coast faced by the islet of Palmaiola and its name recalls a past linked to the iron mines that surround the area. The beach, 150 meters long, of pebbles and mixed sand, partially iron, is characterized by a low and sandy bottom that is particularly suitable for families with children and by a clear water reciprocated by frequent breezes. The main peculiarity of this beach is the brilliance of the ferrous powder that is found in the sand and that creates particular glitters, especially on wet skin.

It is the ideal beach for those who want to spend a day at the beach in a pleasant way, in a relaxed and holiday atmosphere, also ideal for families with children thanks to the gently sloping seabed. The Spiaggia del Cavo is a long beach that stretches over the entire coast that overlooks the gulf. It is divided into two parts in the central area by the marina with the hydrofoil and ferry dock which in any case does not compromise the quality of the water and the clarity of the seabed always reciprocated by the currents of the Piombino canal. After the marina, there is a large stretch (approx. 400 meters) of white and fine gravel with some parts in sand, bordered by a beautiful promenade adorned with palm trees with belvedere furnished with sculptures and benches. Two breakwaters, created to avoid coastal erosion and built with flat rocks, extend into the sea and allow you to sunbathe, look out into the high water and admire the transparency of the sea. Numerous services are present both on the beach and along the promenade or the alleys of the town.
