Would You Like to Buy An Island?

You can buy a private island if you wish to make your own piece of paradise.

With some going at cheaper prices than luxurious houses, owning your own island has never been easier.

At the rate at which new islands are coming into the market (thousands per year), you do not need to be a billionaire to get one. All you need to do is define your preferences regarding size and location, and you are good to buy a private island. All you need is the 6 months of annual leave and squillions of dollars to get there on a whim!

Below are ten islands that you can buy and live in today. Some are within Australia while others are further away.
