Frank Sinatra loved it and the Romans love it: Porto Ercole is a favourite with local weekenders in the know…
Didn’t know Tuscany had beaches? This might be the reason Italians love this bustling harbour and the neighbouring islands of Giglio and Giannutri with their beautiful beach coves … it’s somewhat off the beaten route and set on the Argentario promontory that stretches out into the Tyrrhenian Sea. Renting a boat for the day or sailing your own on these turquoise waters is the best way to enjoy this authentic region of southern Tuscany, or meet friends in local beach clubs and restaurants or head inland for a day spent exploring the historic hilltop towns and wine tasting.
