The Italian island of Giglio will for ever be known as the place where Captain Schettino steered the Costa Concordia on to a rock while flirting with a Moldovan dancer, killing 32 people and landing himself a 16-year prison sentence. Today there are no cruise ships near by — they are mostly parked up in Civitavecchia. Instead the island is emerging as one of the most popular destinations to kick back and unwind in Tuscany. Even Harry Styles has been spotted here.
Giglio is one of seven islands that make up the Tuscan archipelago. It is the easiest to reach, lying eight miles west of the mainland, a one-hour ferry ride from Porto Santo Stefano, itself an easy 90-minute drive from Rome’s Fiumicino airport.
