Is Giglio worth a visit in September?
This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. Giglio is a small island with only three little towns, Porto, Castello and Campese, but it’s a great place to visit and in late September there is a Cantina in Castello where you buy food made by the locals and enjoy live music.
