7 Most Expensive Private Islands Owned By Celebrities
1. Leonardo DiCaprio
Leonardo DiCaprio purchased Blackadore Caye in 2005. The island -more than 104 acres- set him back only $1.75 million.
2. Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp allegedly fell in love with the Bahamas while filming his first Pirates film, and decided it was his destiny to wash ashore on his own private island. The $3.6 million Island is called Little Halls Pond Cay.
3. Celine Dion
Celine Dion's private island is not in the tropics. Her island, Ile Gagnon, is located in Quebec’s Mille Iles River.
4. David Copperfield
Magician David Copperfield owns not one, but four islands in the Bahamas. He paid a total of $50 million to buy the quartet of isles. But only Musha Cay in Bahamas, serves as a private resort.
5. Nicholas Cage
Actor Nicholas Cage also joined the private island bandwagon when he purchased Leaf Cay in Bahamas, for $3 million in 2006
6. Eddie Murphy
In 2007, comedian Eddie Murphy purchased Long Cay for $15 million. The 15.4-acre island, also known as Rooster Cay, is only five minutes from Nassau.
7. Ricky Martin
Livin’ La Vida Loca meant that the Puerto Rico-born singer Ricky Martin felt in need of an island hideaway. That song also ensured he could afford one. He spent €6.4 million on an island off the coast of Rio de Janeiro.
