Scenic Drive and the Marciana Marina

Depart the pier with your guide for the scenic, approximate 45-minute drive to the Marciana Marina, which is wedged into the coast from the imposing steep slopes of Monte Capanne. The Marciana Marina is home to picturesque districts, small granite streets and pastel-coloured houses. At the entrance of the harbour is the Torre Saracena, an 11th-century tower. Upon arrival, some free time is made available to explore the area at your leisure.

This old fishing town is highlighted by approximately 1.2 miles (about two kilometres) of pinewood-lined golden beaches, a beautiful promenade along the sea and splendid accommodations, making it among the most popular tourist centres on the island. Following some free time here, re-board your coach for the approximate 30-minute drive back to the port.
