Probably small ones that are in lakes in untouched parts of the Amazon rain forest.
Other than that - No
As for the user below me ..... how do people know something is UNINHABITABLE unless they have checked the island out by going onto it

Hell Yes. I know of large islands in inland lakes of Labrador where nobody has ever set foot, unless u are askng about oceanic islands which i'm sure there are a few nobody has set foot on because new ones are created all the time due to volcanic activity.

Yes, I think some islands located to the north of Siberia and Canada or little islands surrounding the Antartica have never been visited by humans.

I would think there are many small islands in the Arctic that no one has ever set foot on, but it's impossible to determine. Native people, over the course of time, may have landed on any or all of them, but not stayed long enough to leave any significant artifacts that would prove they were there.

If there are, then, by definition we don't know about them...since humans have never set foot there!
Seriously, I suspect there must be. With all the volcanic activity, new islands are being created, possibly even as we surf Yahoo! Answers.

Sure yes!
Areal surveys verify that there are a lot of islands where man has never footed. The reasons are not all explainable. Some of them are surrounded by rash sea areas, some are constantly covered in fog, some have strong gravitational fields not "passable", and many more reasons.
Barmuda Triangle is the best example of the sea area that contains a number of islanands.

see the earth has no more places to hide
i mean satalites in space have taken pics all around the globe of islands anland making a 3d picture of how the earth looks and so by the late 1990 we have set foot an every single one

I'm sure there are, but I think they're all mapped, so even if there hasn't been any human set foot, the island is recognized.

Maybe step foot, but not know about. With sattelight imaging its easy for scientist to take pictures of the entire world and know where every landmark is.

I hope so. I would hate to think we as humans have destroyed everything of beauty in our world.
Look what we've done to the rain forest, etc.
