Where is the smallest iland in the world?

Answer 1

An island or isle is any piece of land that is completely surrounded by water. Very small islands are called islets. Emergent land features on an atolls are sometimes called islets. A key or cay is another name for a relatively small island or islet. An island in a river or lake is called an eyot.

A rock, sometimes a synonym for a type of "islet", is a landform comprised of rock, lying offshore, having no or minimal vegetation, and uninhabited (see Mōkōlea Rock at left).

An exposed sandbar would be another type of islet. A more technical application is to small land features, isolated by water, lying off the shore of a larger island. And in related fashion, any emergent land on an atoll (a type of island) would also be called an islet.

As with many of these terms, the actual size limits of islets are subjective, and vary from area to area, and person to person.

Darwin Island is named in honor of Charles Darwin, and is among the smallest in the Galapagos Archipelago at just one square kilometer in diameter. With no dry landing sites, Darwin Island's main attractions aren’t found above the surface, but rather in the depths of the Pacific, which is teeming with a spectacular variety of marine life.


Isla Darwin, Galapagos Islands Named in honor of Charles Darwin, this island is among the smallest in the Galapagos Archipelago at just 1 square kilometer. With no dry landing sites, as this isle emerges vertically from the ocean, Isla Darwin�s main attractions aren�t found above the surface, but rather in the depths of the Pacific, which is teeming with a spectacular variety of marine life. Considered to be the best place to dive in the world, Isla Darwin offers the underwater opportunity of a lifetime.

First visited in 1964 with the aid of a helicopter, and a further 3-hour boat trip from Isla Wolf, a visit to Isla Darwin or Culpepper Island as it is known, can be the highlight of a trip to the Galapagos for many. Here, one not only gets a chance to dive with sea turtles, dolphins and a plethora of brightly colored fish, but one also gets the rare opportunity to swim with eagle rays, spotted morays, manta rays, hammerhead sharks, Galapagos sharks and the enormous whale sharks. You can encounter these graceful creatures as they hunt for food in this lush and tranquil environment.
