Spiagga Margidore, Beach in Lacona, Italy
Spiaggia Margidore is a beach in Lacona extending about 750 meters along the Gulf of Stella with a mix of pebbles and sandy areas. The shoreline is backed by a pine forest that provides natural shelter and shade for visitors.
The beach sits below Capo Stella promontory, which served as a lookout point for maritime activity over many centuries. Local communities used the sheltered waters as a natural harbor for boats and fishing vessels.
The integration of a small harbor and mooring facilities reflects the local maritime traditions of Elba Island's coastal communities.
The beach offers sunbeds, umbrellas, changing rooms, and a beach bar for drinks and snacks. The shallow entry to the water is easy for swimmers of all levels, and sandy sections are comfortable for relaxing.
The beach features an unusual mix of coarse pebbles and fine sand in different sections, creating varied textures as you walk along the shore. This combination results from natural coastal currents and the geology of the surrounding area.
