Monte Argentario, divided between the municipalities of Porto Santo Stefano and Porto Ercole, offers the visitor a unique experience of nature and tranquility combined with luxury time.

Originally an island, over the centuries the island was joined to the mainland by a nearby sediment process that gave rise to the first Feniglia and follow what Giannella.
