Capraia Isola
Tuscany, Italy
Capraia Isola is a small, volcanic island in the Tuscan Archipelago, part of Tuscany, Italy, known for its rugged and wild natural landscape. It is the third largest island in this group and lies relatively far from the mainland, making it one of Italy's least populated and most unspoiled islands.
The island features steep cliffs, volcanic rock formations, and crystal-clear waters, popular for diving and snorkeling, especially around spots like Cala Rossa and Cala del Vetriolo. Capraia has a small village centered around the historic Fortress of San Giorgio, built in the 16th century, and several ancient churches.
The island was once a penal colony until 1986 but now focuses on tourism linked to its natural beauty and outdoor activities such as hiking and marine exploration. Its diverse flora and fauna, scenic hiking trails, and peaceful atmosphere make it a favored destination for nature lovers seeking escape from crowded tourist spots.
