The Smallest Inhabited Island

Paradises, of which many dream since childhood.
Dunbar Rock, Honduras

If you plan to visit Cuba; in the near future, do not miss the Island Bay (Bay), located 70 km from the coast. The island itself is nothing special, but the rock Dunbar - it's something....More after the break...

Its current owner has built a villa on a pile of stones, which alone has 6 bedrooms total.
Les Cheneaux Islands


This house is one of 36 other islands, the owner of all this, unfortunately, is unknown. The villa has everything, even the fire tower.
Peach Island, Rhode Island


Difficult to imagine, but on this tiny patch of land is a three-story house with 26 rooms. And all this splendor is worth about $ 3.6 million.
1000 Islands

The smallest house is situated on an island in the archipelago of 1,000 islands (that is the title of the archipelago). It has only one room.
Las Isletas, Nicaragua

In a faraway country of Nicaragua is a lake Kokibolka (Cocibolca). Middle of the lake rises the island, and on the island - a small house, or rather, the villa.

Princess Juliana International Airport (IATA: SXM, ICAO: TNCM) (also known as Sint Maarten International Airport) serves the Dutch part of the island of Saint Martin. In 2007, the airport handled 1,647,824 passengers and 103,650 aircraft movements. The airport serves as a hub for Windward Islands Airways and is the major gateway for the smaller Leeward Islands, including Anguilla, Saba, St. Barthélemy and St. Eustatius. It is named after Juliana of the Netherlands, who as crown princess landed here in 1944, the year after the airport opened. There is also an airport on the French side of the island near Marigot, called Aéroport de Grand Case or L'Espérance Airport.The airport was started as a military airstrip in 1942. It was converted to a civilian airport in 1943. In 1964 the airport was remodeled and relocated, with a new terminal building and control tower. The facilities were upgraded in 1985 and 2001.
