16 May 2019 1 119 Report

There are millions of Islands in the world. Pacific Islands are largest in number. But what is the exact total number of Islands in the world?

Lisa Marie Flores

As a resident of a Pacific Island, Guam USA, I am curious if you are including atolls as well?

Roughly there are about 25,000 Islands in the Pacific divided into 3 major groups: Micronesia, Polynesia and Melanesia.

I can likely get you more information if needed as I have access to the MARC (Micronesia Area Research Center) on the University of Guam campus.
