The uninhabited island is only 130,000 square yards and is called Galesnjak. The onwer didn't even know how perfectly this island was shaped. It could be the perfect place for a Valentine's Day break.

Vlado Juresko said: "It has been incredible. We think it is the most perfect heart-shaped island in the world. Nobody lives there so if lovers really do want to spend time alone it's the perfect desert island.

"We always thought it looked a bit like a heart but since it's been on Google Earth everyone else has seen it too and the whole world seems to want to stay here."
