The Island
Water-surrounded territory
The Island typically refers to a specific island understood from context—whether a nearby landmass, a famous location, or a fictional setting: We're taking the ferry to the island this weekend.
In many coastal communities, "the island" names the local landmark without further specification.
The phrase also titles several films and novels, most notably the 2005 science fiction thriller about clones.
