Hog Island, Florida
$7,900,000
With a total of 224 secluded acres, Hog Island is the largest private island for sale in Florida. Tucked away on beautiful Lake George, the island getaway is accessed via boat, helicopter and sea plane, and stays connected to mainland power, phones and Internet through submarine cable. The island is complete with a main house, along with two log cabins and a self-sufficient cottage, a helicopter pad and even a restored 1899 school house.

Pladda Rock, Scotland
€350,000
Located off the western coast of Scotland with Isle of Arran as its closest neighbor, Pladda Rock offers remote living and spectacular sea views. The 28-acre island is currently uninhabited with a fully functioning lighthouse and a cluster of historic buildings that date back to the time when a lighthouse keeper operated the tower. The old structures need renovation, which will allow the new owner to create a more eco-friendly, off-grid dwelling.
Table Rock Island, Canada
CAD $2,650,000
Surrounded by Ontario’s Georgian Bay, Table Rock Island boasts a striking circular home designed by Canadian architect William Grierson. Over his 50-year career, Grierson designed some of the most innovative residencies in the country, including this 3-acre Table Rock Island family retreat that is able to meet the demands of its harsh but unique climate. Like spokes on a wheel, the home’s open-air central courtyard connects to all eight bedrooms and four bathrooms, as well as the main grand living space, which houses the kitchen, living room and dining area. The perfectly round structure and floor-to-ceiling glass windows offer 360-degree panoramic views of its environment.
Trinity Island, Greece

Located in the South Eubeon Gulf, just 1.5 hours away from Athens by car or 10 minutes by helicopter, Trinity Island is treasured for its royal past.

Trinity Island’s mostly flat terrain is lavishly covered with cypress forests, 350 olive trees as well as pistachio, pomegranate, apricot and peach trees.
Isola delle Femmine, Italy
