Darsena Medicea
About
Darsena Medicea serves Elba from Calata Mazzini, 57037 Portoferraio LI, Italy, a harbour address on the island's northern shore.
Visitors give the marina a 3.6 out of 5 average from 46 reviews, a mixed reception that reflects its working character. The website https://www.marinadiportoferraio.it/ carries further detail about the harbour. Portoferraio sits on Elba's north coast, and the island's road network links it with Marina di Campo, Capoliveri, Porto Azzurro, Marciana, Procchio, Cavo and Rio Marina, so the marina is easy to reach from the main resorts.
Calata Mazzini runs along the waterfront at Portoferraio, within walking distance of the town's ferry landing.
Italian island cooking centres on seafood, handmade pasta, olive oil and local wines, and the harbour setting suits a meal of that kind. Italian is the main language, with local dialects spoken alongside it, and summer festas for patron saints bring processions, band music and fireworks. Smaller Italian islands are reached by boat and have few cars, so ferries and hydrofoils do most of the work.
