Hydrography

Rivers rarely exceed 3 km in length on the island and it is common for those of lesser length to dry up over the summer period. The largest rivers, sorted by length, are:
Fosso San Francesco 6.5 km;
Fosso Barion, 5.1 km;
Fosso Redinoce, 2 km
Between Poggio and Marciana, at the foot of Mount Capanne, is a natural spring called Fonte Napoleone, which is regarded for its quality.
