101 Vacation Islands

If you are going to ask just how many islands are there in the world, then I'm sorry to tell you but there's no definitive, or exact, answer. Unlike the continents which are very big masses of land, islands are small that they are either 'reclaimed' by the sea, or 'given birth to' by volcanoes and earthquakes. You'd be surprised if one day you go to your favorite beach and discover that the island that you used to see there is gone or where there is no island before the next day there is one. Nature sure has a nice way of surprising us.
