    Numerous Phoenician finds, including the remains of amphorae from the 7th century BC. BC, show that the island was heavily frequented, probably because of its location on the route between Phoenician Olbia and Etruria.

    In 1882 an oval basin (4m x 3m) paved with cocciopesto was discovered which was probably the bottom of an ancient Roman cistern.

      The Isola di Figarolo is not only a place rich in history, but also a tempting hiking area. Here, where the Mediterranean waves crash onto the coast, natural paths lead through a diverse landscape.

      It's best to start your hike at the harbor, from where well-signposted paths take you across the island. The gentle hills, criss-crossed by fragrant maquis bushes, not only offer wonderful views, but also shady places to take a break. Keep an eye out for the unique flora and fauna as the island is home to some rare species of birds and plants.

      Numerous Phoenician finds, particularly the remains of amphorae from the 7th century BC. BC, tell of a time when the island was heavily frequented. Immerse yourself in history by visiting these ancient sites. The island's strategic location on the route between Phoenician Olbia and Etruria makes every step on this land particularly exciting.

      Another highlight on your hike will be the oval basin, which was discovered in 1882. With a paved floor made of cocciopesto, this building bears witness to a Roman past. It is believed to have been the bottom of an ancient cistern.

        View of the aquaculture off the coast. Can also be seen during the landing approach to Olbia 😄
