Spiaggia di Pomonte, Pebbly beach in Campo nell'Elba, Italy.
Spiaggia di Pomonte is a pebbly beach in Campo nell'Elba divided into three distinct sections with smooth granite stones and transparent shallow water near the shoreline. The entire stretch measures roughly 240 meters and slopes gently into the sea.
The merchant vessel Elviscott sank in 1972 and left behind a wreck that remains visible today. A restored crane on the right side stands as a reminder of the region's past granite loading operations.
The central section draws divers and snorkelers who explore the Elviscott merchant vessel, now a landmark of the island's maritime past and a meeting point for underwater enthusiasts.
The beach is accessible via a short path from the town center with both free and paid parking options nearby. Bring sun protection and comfortable footwear since walking on pebbles requires proper shoes for extended visits.
The Elviscott wreck lies between 3 to 12 meters deep and is visible from the surface, making it accessible to free divers who want to explore the sunken structure up close. This draws underwater explorers seeking to discover submerged sites without specialized equipment.
