Spiaggia Di Barbarossa, Beach in Porto Azzurro, Italy
The 160-meter-long Barbarossa beach contains fine dark shingle mixed with sand, facing south towards the Calamita peninsula and Monte Capanne mountains.
The beach gained its name from the Turkish admiral Khayr-al-Din Barbarossa, who conducted raids on Elba Island during the sixteenth century.
The Carmignani path connects the beach to Porto Azzurro, following the perimeter wall of Forte San Giacomo, which now functions as a prison.
Visitors can access beach facilities including a bar, restaurant, equipment rentals for water sports, and a designated parking area near the shore.
The beach features underwater rocky formations at both ends, creating optimal conditions for snorkeling and marine life observation.
