Planning an island vacation? TripAdvisor the world's largest travel site, can help you choose which island to visit it with its Travelers' Choice Islands. In its second year, the travel site created a list of the Top 10 Islands in the World, in the U.S., Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Europe, South America and the South Pacific, recognizing more than 100 islands around the globe.

"From the coral reefs of Ambergris Caye to the beaches of Ko Tao, these winning islands have been highly rated from travelers around the globe."
