About the beach
In the municipality of Portoferraio, in the province of Livorno (Tuscany), Spiaggia di Capo Bianco is a pebble beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Orientation: north (8°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Ostro (S) or Libeccio (SW), keeps it calm; the Tramontane (N) or Gregale (NE) hits it from the sea and can raise waves. The orientation is derived from the coastline and is still being verified.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
Bathing water rated excellent by the EEA (2025 season).
