The Argentario is famous for its rugged coastline where you can find coves and beaches with crystal-clear turquoise water. They are also of remarkable beauty from a naturalistic point of view. This is why they are part of the Cetacean Sanctuary, established in 1991, as a protected natural marine area of international interest. The two towns on the promontory are Porto Santo Stefano to the north-west and Porto Ercole, of more ancient origins, to the south-east. Monte Argentario is an almost completely hilly promontory connected to the mainland by three tongues of land. The highest point of the promontory is Punta Telegrafo with its 635 m above sea level. The landscape is characterised by man-made terraces for the cultivation of vines and olive trees. The only plain is located at Terrarossa, near the 19th-century dam on which the road to Orbetello was built.
