If the history of Australia has always fascinated you, you now have a chance to own one of the most historically significant pieces of land in this great continent. The historical slab of Australia – 11ha of pristine Dirk Hartog Island is up for sale and expected to fetch up to AUD10 million ($9.1 million). The slab located in Western Australia has historical significance as it is the place where the Dutch East India Company captain Dirk Hartog became the first European to step on the country’s west coast in 1616. On arrival Hartog left a commemorative plate on the island, which another Dutchman, William de Vlamingh, then replaced with his own plate when he landed at Cape Inscription, on the island’s northern tip, in 1697. The lease of the 80km long island was bought by the Wardle family and the island is now a national park and part of the Shark Bay World Heritage area.
When the Wardles handed the island to the state’s Department of Environment and Conservation, they were given four freehold plots of land in return. The Wardles have now decided to sell their plot at the Sunday Island Bay, which is at the island’s southern tip, on the condition that it is run as an eco-tourism operation. The island offered for sale lies a few kilometers from Steep Point, the most western point of mainland Australia. The island is expected to generate a lot of interest from Western Australia’s wealthy boating fraternity.

If the history or simply the beauty of this island appeals to you, you better hurry and make your offer as the bids close on October 25, 394 years to the day after Hartog landed on the island.

The uber rich folk’s rarely mix with the common crowds. From residing in lavish mansions to holidaying in the most exotic locales, they like to stand apart and away from the rest. One way to do this is by owning your very own private island. So if you are one of those filthy rich folks interested in splurging on a private island, you can definitely not go wrong with the Scott Island. Located just three miles across the Stuart Channel from the Vancouver Island town of Chemainus, Scott Island is a lush green paradise spreading across 5.26 acres. A large 4,541-square foot mansion is the main residence on this island. The mansion boasts of five bedrooms, six bathrooms, an octagonal great room/entertainment area, an open and airy kitchen/dining/family room, and a separate living room with a brick fireplace.
There is also a 1,644-square foot, self-contained caretaker’s wing with two bedrooms and two bathrooms of its own, attached to the main house. The house with wrap-around decks and large balconies for the upper floors makes for a comfy residence.

If you ever get tired of lazing around the plush home you can play on the island’s full-size tennis court, or go hiking and bird watching or enjoy some water activities like kayaking, swimming, diving, fishing, and crabbing in the waters offshore. But the best feature of the island is definitely the large and protected all-weather and all-tide harbor.

The beautiful British Columbia Island will make for a perfect getaway destination. The island is being offered fully furnished for CAD $4,900,000 ($4,726,800). For more info click here.
