Unearth a side to Tuscany you’ve never seen before with a guided tour of Gorgona. As the smallest, greenest and wildest of the islands in the Tuscan Archipelago, Gorgona requires guests to have authorised access beforehand. The experience delves into the island’s unique blend of unspoiled nature, rich history and its present-day role as a living conservation and rehabilitation project. It is also the perfect day trip from our villa rentals on the Tuscany Coast.

Embark on an Exclusive Tour of Gorgona Island in the Tuscan Archipelago   

Play castaway for the day on the island of Gorgona, the smallest island in the Tuscan Archipelago. It’s almost entirely mountainous and is the last penal colony in Europe. Prisoners and residents coexist in harmony, contributing to agricultural projects and the preservation of the island’s unique environment. 

Your guided visit offers a rare glimpse into this extraordinary setting, where daily life unfolds at a pace unlike anywhere else in Tuscany. See for yourself how the island’s community works together to protect its fragile ecosystems. As the last penal colony in Europe, visits are regulated and restricted to a limited number, making this experience utterly unique.
