NSFW geography lesson!
Pirates... let's be honest... sometimes we all have those immature little moments. So here's something that might make you all smile!
Lockdown has created some interesting developments... from TikTok dances to countless banana bread recipes, but here is something a little different.
Whilst Google Earth fan Joleen Vultaggio, from Detroit (USA), was recently scrolling through the paradise islands of the South Pacific, she "discovered" an approximately 500-meter-long island with a striking shape in New Caledonia.
In case you want to get an idea now itself: The best way you can see the island in the satellite view from Google Maps when you the coordinates 20 ° 37'30.0 "S 166 ° 18'20.2" E.
Do you want to find out more about the island? The French overseas territory of New Caledonia is located in the southern Pacific, east of Australia. Tourist entry is currently not possible. Usually there are flights to the capital Nouméa from Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Tahiti, Fiji and Vanuatu.
The small uninhabited island in question belongs to a larger group of stunning Loyalty Islands. We have not yet been able to find an official name for the island. "Île de Coq" was recently marked as the name of a place of interest on Google Maps, but was removed again shortly afterwards. The closest inhabited island is Ouvea, which is home to around 3,400 people.
