Port of Talamone, Maritime port in Orbetello, Italy.

The Port of Talamone lies at the western end of the Gulf of Talamone, beside the modern town and below the promontory holding the old centre. Its southern end is closed by a breakwater carrying a signal lighthouse, with a second light marking the promontory's southern spur. Berths line several piers and quays, with depths from 2 metres at the quays to 5 metres in the basin.

The port served the Etruscans as the natural sea outlet for the necropolises of Orbetello and Magliano in Toscana, and remained strategic in Roman times. In the Middle Ages it was fortified against raids. On 6 March 1860 Giuseppe Garibaldi landed here to await volunteers, who embarked on 8 March for the Expedition of the Thousand.

The port remains tied to fishing traditions that shape how locals live and work along the water today. Visitors can observe old techniques and daily routines as fishermen maintain their boats and land their catches.

The harbor is easily accessible and offers good vantage points to watch shipping activity from the waterfront area. Keep in mind that this is an active working port, so some areas may have restricted access for safety reasons.

The port sits right next to the Maremma Natural Park, drawing sailors and nature lovers who want to move between the harbor and the wild coast. This proximity lets visitors experience both working maritime infrastructure and protected natural territories in the same journey.
