Cavo is the closest port to the mainland on the Isle of Elba, just a 15 minute hydrofoil journey away from the mainland port of Piombino. The small town has several restaurants and there are the remains of a Roman villa not far out of the town accessible by a delightful sea-front walk.
The ancients knew Elba as Iva because of its rich iron resources, making it an important port for navigation and trade. The Greeks later named it Aethalia (fume), referring to all the smoke given out by the iron refining furnaces. As a result, it today boasts many rich architectural remains such as prehistoric villages and ancient granite quarries. The best way to see the island and its rich cultural treasures is by foot, as it features a good network of mapped hiking routes. |
