THE PRIVATE ISLANDS HAVE MOVED! MY NEW URL IS NOW www.e-islands.org AND I WILL NO LONGER BE UPDATING THIS SITE.
The old welcome message:
This site is for people who like islands. My guess is that most of my visitors are just looking and dreaming--but that's alright. I'm not here to make money either. I'm just trying to bring together in one place all the private islands I've found. I have collected some of the pick listings on my regional Selections pages--which I admit need some updating.
This is in essence a real estate page, but since I am not selling any of these islands, I have attempted to be honest. Please note that I have not visited most of these islands, either; I am going simply on descriptions I have received from the agents. I really can't and have no desire to be held responsible for the contents of this website. Thanks.
Hopefully sometime soon I will redesign the new site as well. Thanks.

of political stability.

Defunct or Doubtful Island Pages
I made a category just for dead links, pages that no longer have any islands, etcetera, just in case they make a comeback.
Ken
Lund, a Specialist in Canadian Islands. Also links to other islands for
sale all over. It was a really good site--you can still get to the home page, just none of the island pages...

Islands in the Bahamas, Fiji, Greece, Fr. Polynesia, and Belize
Pelican Cay, one of the few private islands I have ever encountered for sale in Antigua

Island Travel I am going to be adding various island travel services. Many of the islands for sale can also be rented, and the best way to get acquainted with an island is to go there. If it's too much trouble to get there once, it's not worth it.
Villas of The World's private island rentals. Watch out--pricey! Unusual Villas' Island Rentals
Island Job Marketplace!
Huh. It's a good thing I didn't completely delete some of those old links. Both Croatia Broker Realty and Colliers International have made a comeback.
HERE NOW: Island Job Marketplace! Island Jobs
Coming Soon: I think that there is a lot of interest in so-called "island micronations"--the creation of a new country on an island. Accordingly, I will be adding some links to micronational sites. Please understand, I personally am doubtful as to the viability of these plans. You can also buy a Hotel or a Resort

Notes:
For the second time in a few years, I just read ISLANDS IN THE STREAM by Ernest Hemingway. It's a beautiful, awesome, exhilirating book, especially the first third where Hemingway describes his house on the island and his pleasant pastimes there. One of my favorites. Many of these islands are listed by various other island
dealers. For the most part, I am not in any way connected with the sellers.
I am displaying these images for your viewing pleasure, and to the best
of my knowledge none of them are copyrighted material. If you object in
any way to the policies of my site, please email me. Also, to find out more about any of these islands, send me an email and I'll refer you to the seller.
On a lighter note, I always love finding out about new
islands. There are many more island sites of which I am aware that I have
not yet added to this site. Although I am gradually trying to add everything
I have found, that may take a while. In the meantime, please feel free
to email me the addresses of any other island sites you have run across.
I'm never too busy to correspond with another island lover. Thanks.
