Montecristo is a small Italian Islet located about halfway between Corsica and mainland Italy; south of Elba and west of Giglio . It is part of the Tuscan Archipelago . The island is remote and kept by the Italian government as a nature preserve and Hunting park, and only accessible by private yacht and permit. There are no structures on the island, though the ruins of a 13th-century Monastery (destroyed by Pirate s in 1553 ) are visible. The island is probably best-known as a fictional setting in Alexandre Dumas 's novel '' The Count Of Monte Cristo '', but the actual island does not correspond closely to the description in the novel. |
