About
Description
Its most notable landmarks are the three trees that inhabit one side of the island. It appears small, but in reality, it is much larger and appears small because of an optical illusion.[1]
On the other side of the island there is a forest filled with an array of wild life and a skeleton who formerly guarded the Magic Book.[1]
History
Bikini Atoll has been around for millennia. The trees that inhabit the island have had its ancestors during the times of prehistory.[2]
At one point, Davy Jones was either on the island or at least had the Magic Book which formerly resided on the island. [1]
