Spiaggia di Cavoli, Sandy beach in Marina di Campo, Italy

Spiaggia di Cavoli is a sandy beach on the island of Elba, near Marina di Campo, flanked by granite rock formations on both sides. Those rocks divide the bay into two sections that differ slightly in character, with one side more sheltered and the other more open to the sea.

Granite quarrying at Cavoli dates to the 1st century AD, and the place name comes from the Latin cavulae, meaning quarries. Pisa continued the activity in the Middle Ages, leaving the mark OPE, for the Opera della Primaziale Pisana, on a 7.86 m column above the beach. From 1907 to 1914 the German Zimmer family ran the monzogranite quarries; after World War I the business passed to Federico Mellini, then to S.A.G.E. and finally to Guglielmo Federici.

The name Cavoli comes from the Latin cavulae, meaning quarries, referring to the granodiorite workings documented here since the 1st century. Near Grottarelle and along the Vie del Granito ecomuseum, unfinished columns and two circular basins remain hidden in the vegetation; one, called "La Nave" since the 18th century, may be a Roman labrum or a Pisan baptismal font.

The beach has rental services for sun loungers, umbrellas, and water gear, along with bars and restaurants right on the shore. Visitors who want to explore the granite rocks should wear shoes with a good grip, as the surfaces can be uneven.

A 7.86 m granite column with a diameter of 1.10 m, bearing the inscription "OPE" for the Opera della Primaziale Pisana, stands on the heights above the beach. Another column emerged from the sandy seabed during a storm on 21 December 1989 and now stands in Cavoli's public gardens.
