Heart Land Formation
‘Lover’s Island’ just off the Croatian coast is one of the few naturally
occurring heart shapes on Earth. Actually called Galešnjak, it is a
privately owned island located in the Adriatic Sea, close to the town of
Turanj. Full of wild plants and trees, but little else, this sleepy
isle came to worldwide attention because of its unusual shape in
February 2009, when it was publicized by Google Earth.

There are so many stunning landscapes on Earth, yet nature never
ceases to amaze. Islands are often beautiful enough in their own right
when seen from ground level: we don’t need to discern any particular
pattern in their design. When viewed from above, you might imagine the
shape of islands to be random too, but a look at the following images
may make you think again. Sprawled out in the oceans, islands can paint
many a strange picture. Mother Nature certainly seems to have had a
sense of humor in designing them!
This coral reef island – situated off the north coast of Flores
Island, Indonesia – is simply stunning. It looks as though the shape of
island was inspired by dolphins that might have been swimming around it.
Simply breathtaking!
