Cotoncello beach
Ultimate guide (December 2024)
Cotoncello is the smallest beach in
Elba island of Italy. De facto it is just a tiny piece of sand hidden in the rocks. It's not very comfortable, but beautiful anyway. This place can be recommended for those looking for unusual beaches. Shore and seabed: sand, stones.
