Answer:

Island are natural.... Actually Islands are not floating on water....

They are the top of the submerged mountains or sometimes lands....

For example... Hawaii Island...

Hawaii Island is the top of a submerged island which is about 11,000 meters high... But all parts are under water... So only top forms Island..... The mountain of Hawaii is said to be even more longer than MOUNT EVEREST....

Hawaii mountain are the highest mountain in the world....

Also New Zealand is the top of a submerged lands.... It is said that the part which is submerged under water is so big that it can be considered as a continent.....
