    Simply amazing like most sites on the island, one of my favourite days at the beach. easy enough to reach by car, spectacular views from sea or cliffs. Must try. Enjoy.

    One of the nicest beaches I have ever been too. I would go back and I would recommend it to anyone. It was very crowded going in mid august and a bit difficult to find but just follow the people. Or look up online but google maples doesn’t send you there correctly. Some of the clearest water I have ever seen

    It's a lovely beach, clean and generally quiet. The white pebbles are great for the feet and the water perfect depth for swimming and exploring the rock with children. Unsupervised parking available above the beach, around 300 m walk.

    The best beach on the island I've been to. The water is crystal clear and the fish swim around you really close. It is a pebble beach so I recommend swimming shoes. In the summer months, if you arrive early, you can park on the side of the road, otherwise there is a private car park which costs 12 € for the whole day. Before arriving at the beach there is a small restaurant with a fantastic view.

    Great beach, beautiful and calm. The bar at the top of the hill is also a great viewpoint and has good coffee

    Amazing beach, rocky instead of sand, but the water is incredible. Good spot for swimming and enjoying the day. There’s a small restaurant to buy snacks and drinks with and amazing view from the top. The parking situation is a nightmare. Make sure you arrive early as it gets crowded. Parking is done in the small mountain road and then you have to do a short hike downwards to the beach. This place is not accesible for wheelchair. Umbrellas and beach beds are available for rent however in small qty due to the limited space.

    Parking is really bad on this beach. Many cars had fines on the window. We got a 42 euro fine for parking on the side of the road.

    Beautiful clean beach with very clear water

    Wonderful. Get an umbrella and chairs. Sure, it's 25 euro. But stay the whole day and enjoy the beautiful beach.

    Very pretty beach with beautiful clear water. It's not very big so it can get quite packed. Parking is available for 6euros a day. Please wear proper shoes for getting down to the beach as the path is quite treacherous. The is a bar there and showers.

    Beautiful pebble beach with crystal clear water. There is a bit of a tiny hike to get to the beach but not bad and well worth a bit of effort.

    Really lovely place, you'll also have a bar in the nearby if you want to end your day with a drink

    Beautiful beach!!! There is a parking lot (10 euro for a whole day) where you can leave your car. Then, you walk down a narrow road and arrive at beach La Sorgente. If you proceed down the path, you arrive at beach Sansone, which is only a few meters away from La Sorgente. There is a bar too in-between the two beaches. The beaches are made of pebbles and have clear blue water. One small issue: it is usually packed. My advice is to come early and get a nice spot :) however, we arrived late, around ten o'clock, but managed to find a free spot. Also, on the furthest part of Sansone beach, around 2 pm there will be no sun on the beach, cause the rock shadows it, which is however pretty enjoyable anyway. You can dive and have a relaxing day in one of the most stunning beaches of Elba island!

    Beautiful and quiet! An immersion in the sound of the sea. A short down path to reach this beautiful spot is worthwhile the experience. There is a small restaurant nearby but no kiosk so bring your own water and snacks if you wish not to walk anymore

    Very nice beach. Remember to take swimming shoes, due to the stones. Also, if you're taking the bus you have to arrive from the east side. The route suggested by Google doesn't work, as the camping doesn't let anyone pass through and it's private property.

    Super clear water, you can see the fishes swimming around you. It’s a pebbles beach so make sure you wear swimming shoes. Walk-in restaurant on top with great views to the beach. The beach is gorgeous. You can park your car by the side of the road or at the private parking down the main road.
