Here it is, off the north-west coast of Australia, but in French waters - the amazing Sandy Island:

Sadly, the only sand is 1400 feet down under the sea, because Sandy Islad doesn't exist. No one knows how it got on to various maps - including, obviously, Google maps - but when some folks tried to sail there they found nothing but empty ocean.
Som a oerfect way to get away from it all.
I am fascinated by this! Have to research!!!
