In tiny Capraia, part of the Tuscan Archipelago, the streets don’t bustle; they hum quietly with the sound of footsteps. The island, which sits just over 30 miles off the Tuscan coast, comprises two settlements: Il Porto by the sea and Il Paese, the historic village. Largely uninhabited, Capraia is teeming with flora and fauna, an oasis for nature lovers. A quick stroll through its scenic trails reveals why it’s called the “wild island.”
