Monte Argentario was originally an island and later, due to deposits that were transported from rivers and the sea, it became connected with Orbetello. Through the hook of Orbetello you can reach Porto S. Stefano, in the northern part of the peninsula. Until recently, it was a fishing village, founded in the 15th century by sea people from Genoa that suffered a ship wreck here. Today, Porto S. Stefano is a summer residence for sophisticated classes. Here you will find villas from famous people on the cliffs outside of the city and yachts from the richest people are located in the characteristic harbour anchored. From here, ships go to Giglio and Giannutri.
