Cerboli is a small limestone island in the Piombino channel, about 6 miles from Elba. It falls within the perimeter of the Tuscan Archipelago Park and is a protected area. The island, which has an area of 0.004 square kilometers, is entirely covered with marine cistus, garrigue and mastic. The only signs of the distant passage of man are a small abandoned quarry and some ruined ruins. Ideal for those who love tranquility.
Palmaiola is a few tens of minutes away from the Gulf of Baratti. This small island has two shoals ideal for diving, adapting to all levels of experience. The seabed, a refuge for lobsters and groupers, due to the continuous presence of currents and rocks, slopes down to a depth of 30 meters.
