Probably, each of us at some point had the thought of getting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

To fulfill your dream and escape from boring work, surroundings and everyday life, you can go to one of the tiny islands from our list.

All of them are so cut off from the outside world that they will fully satisfy your desire to live a deserted island life, which is so different from the usual one.

Room Enough Island in the St. Lawrence River

The island is considered the smallest in the world, as its area is just over 300 square meters. Due to such modest dimensions, only a modest cottage and one tree could fit on the island.

True, vacationing in such a place is associated with a certain risk, because the river in this place every now and then tends to raise its waters, which will undoubtedly lead to flooding of the house.

Suwarrow Atoll in the Pacific Ocean

The land area of Suwarrow Atoll is only 0.4 square kilometers. The island is most likely uninhabited, since only caretakers and their families live there, and only in the spring and autumn.

In addition, diving enthusiasts and other thrill seekers can be counted among the “residents” of Suwarrow.

Visovac Island in Croatia

The island of Visovac is located in the middle of a lake of the same name, which was formed by the waters of the Krka River. Almost its entire area, which, by the way, is 0.017 sq. km, is occupied by an active monastery.

Earlier we talked about the largest lake in the history of the planet.
