List of islands by

area

This list of islands by area includes all islands in the world larger than 2,500 km2 (970 sq mi)
and most of the islands over 1,000 km2 (390 sq mi), sorted in descending order by area. For
comparison, four very large continental landmasses are also shown.

Dymaxion world map with the continental landmasses (Roman numerals) and 30 largest islands (Arabic numerals)
roughly to scale
Continental landmasses

Continental landmasses are not usually classified as islands despite being completely
surrounded by water.[Note 1] However, because the definition of continent varies between
geographers, the Americas is sometimes defined as two separate continents while mainland
Australia is sometimes defined as an island as well as a continent. Nevertheless, for the
purposes of this list, mainland Australia along with the other major landmasses have been listed
as continental landmasses for comparison. The figures are approximations and are for the four
major continental landmasses only.[Note 2] The artificial Panama and Suez canals are
disregarded, as they are not natural waters that separate the continents.
