Palmaiola is an islet located in the middle of Piombino Channel, at 3 kilometres from Elba and 7 kilometres from Piombino; it is part of the comune of Rio Marina and is wholly owned by the State.
In the 14th century it was named Insulam Palmarole because of the abundance of the Mediterranean dwarf palm at that time. Palmaiola has rocky and craggy cliffs and has a triangular shape; it is 461 metres long, 396 metres wide, 85 metres high and has 1.7 km of coast. It is integrated in the European Union Special Protection Area as Site of Community Importance and it is part of the Arcipelago Toscano National Park.
