Morcone Beach is situated in the southeastern part of the Island of Elba, within the comune of Capoliveri. It is one of the larger beach resorts on the island, offering a tranquil atmosphere and stunning natural beauty. The beach stretches approximately 300 meters, featuring soft golden sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Surrounded by rugged cliffs and lush Mediterranean vegetation, Morcone provides breathtaking panoramic views, making it ideal for relaxation and exploration. Despite its picturesque setting, it does not have standard beach amenities like lifeguards or restrooms nearby.
The beach's proximity to the historic town of Capoliveri and the seaside town of Porto Azzurro offers visitors a blend of cultural heritage and coastal charm. From Morcone, it is a 25-minute drive to Portoferraio, the capital of Elba. While it is not typically considered a good swimming beach, Morcone's clear waters offer opportunities for snorkeling and exploring the underwater world.
Visitors can enjoy activities such as beach volleyball, paddleboarding, and sunbathing. The nearby hiking trails and scenic views make it a perfect spot for nature lovers.
