Baratti is certainly one of those beaches that makes you fall in love and that satisfies all its visitors. Characterized by a unique atmosphere, you can breathe an air of peace and tranquility. The gulf is in fact surrounded by a real oasis of nature: green hills, crossed by dirt paths that open onto wonderful panoramas and small hidden jewels, such as the Hexagon House and the Dinosaur House. If you get tired of the sea and the sun and are not fond of walking, fear not: just behind the beach there are pine trees where you can look for some coolness and shade. Today in Baratti there is only a small, very picturesque tourist port, but once it was one of the nerve centers of the Etruscan civilization, not only for trade but also for the working of iron, coming from Elba.

To get there you have to walk on the rocks but this makes it a clean, quiet and beautiful area like few others
