Argentario – Tuscany: wild promontory, crystal clear waters and seaside villages between lagoons and spectacular cliffs. Monte Argentario is a rocky promontory overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, connected to the mainland by two sandy tombolos that enclose the Orbetello Lagoon. It is a unique corner of the Tuscan Maremma, where wild nature, beaches set in the rock, picturesque marinas and breathtaking sea views meet. 🌊 Transparent sea and coves to discover: The coasts of the Argentario are jagged and scenic, perfect for those looking for isolated beaches, reefs for snorkeling and hidden bays reachable by sea or through paths in the scrub. The seabed rich in marine life also makes it a popular destination for divers. 👉 Tip: Explore the coast between Cala del Gesso and Cala Grande by boat: turquoise waters, white rocks and absolute silence. 🏘️ Seaside villages and elegant atmospheres: Porto Ercole and Porto Santo Stefano are the two main centers of the promontory. The first is intimate and suggestive, with a historic center to explore on foot; the second has a livelier soul, with the tourist port and departures for Giglio and Giannutri. 👉 Tip: Stroll along the promenade of Porto Santo Stefano in the evening and stop for a seafood dinner overlooking the moored boats. 🌿 Nature and scenic routes: The interior of the promontory is crisscrossed by scenic roads and hiking trails that offer spectacular views of the sea. From the Convent of the Passionist Friars to the Spanish Fortress, every viewpoint is an opportunity to stop and observe the landscape changing with the light. 👉 Tip: Travel along the Argentario Panoramic Road by bike or scooter: gentle curves and endless views of the archipelago. 🍽️ Seafood cuisine and local products: The gastronomy of the Argentario is based on fresh fish, shellfish, seafood and products from the Maremma. All accompanied by mineral white wines and local extra virgin olive oil. The dishes are simple, authentic and deeply linked to the territory. 👉 Tip: Try a Maremma-style fish soup with toast and a glass of Ansonica: real taste with a sea view. 🛏️ Where to stay: Monte Argentario offers a wide choice: hotels by the sea, holiday homes with terraces, farmhouses in the Mediterranean scrub and B&Bs in the villages. Perfect for those looking for sea, nature and relaxation, with the possibility of day trips to nearby islands. 👉 Tip: Choose a property between Poggio Pertuso and Porto Ercole to enjoy the tranquility and views of the lagoon or the open sea. The Argentario is a perfect balance between rock and sea, silence and life, sober luxury and wild nature: here Tuscany has the scent of salt and the light of the Mediterranean.
