The Italian town of Porto Santo Stefano is the largest town on Monte Argentario and lies on the shores of a pretty bay, complete with a busy port and chic marina where visitors can frequently see luxurious super yachts moored up. The town is known for its excellent seafood and gastronomy in general and draws in many Italians from Rome and Northern Italy as a consequence. The countryside that surrounds the town is dotted with fortresses and towers built by the Spanish to keep an eye on their many enemies and many of these relics can be visited all year round.
The town can trace its history back to the end of the 15th century when it was founded by Ligurian and Alban farmers and fishermen. Since the latter part of the 16th century the town grew rapidly which culminated in it becoming one of the most important centres for the Spanish fleet in Italy by the beginning of the 17th century.
Ferry services from the town's port depart to the island of Giglio.
