The island of Giglio account 1,308 permanent residents, according to the municipal figure as of December 31, 2025. You can therefore remember about 1,300 residents to picture its year-round population. This number refers to people who officially live there, not passing visitors or those staying there on vacation.
In summer, the island is far busier, and the atmosphere of the villages as well as the beaches changes with the arrival of vacationers. The resident figure nevertheless remains a good reference point for understanding the scale of theIsola del Giglio : it is a small island inhabited all year round, not a destination populated only during the tourist season. If you are planning a visit, simply keep in mind that summer crowds are not reflected in this official total.
