The Largest Island in A Lake on An Island in A Lake on An Island In the World

If reading the title of this post didn’t give you the Vulcan mind meld, and you’re still with us, then good: let’s go.

Elbruz has compiled an interesting list of islands and lakes, and various mind-boggling permutations of islands and lakes. For example, they identify the largest lake, the largest island, the largest lake on an island, the largest island in a lake, and so on, until they get to the largest island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island.

Oh…my head!

Anyway, according to them, the largest island in a lake on an island in a lake on an island is Vulcan Point in Crater Lake on Vulcano Island in Lake Taal on Luzon. (Hint: don’t zoom in and out real fast, or you’re head’ll spin!) If maps aren’t your thing, and you want to see an actual image, check this out. Incidentally, the largest island in a lake on an island in a lake is the island in Mindemoya Lake on Manitoulin Island in Lake Huron.

Happily, both these islands are casino-free, so if you head there, don’t be surprised to find, um, nothing.
