This Island off the Amalfi Coast in Italy Is Shaped Like a Dolphin

No, your eyes aren't deceiving you and this isn't the work of Photoshop—this island has the distinct shape of a dolphin. In yet another example of nature being amazing, this island in Italy—located between Capri and Positano—is part of a cluster known as the Sirenusas or the Gallos. This specific, dolphin-shaped mass of land is the biggest island of the group and known as Gallo Lungo. Besides the unusual shape, this island has a fascinating history to make it even more intriguing. First, the name Sirenusas comes from the Italian word sirene, which means sirens. Legend says that mythological sirens used the islands as their residence. The ancient Greeks said that they had the heads of humans and the body of a bird. This bird-like quality gave birth to the second name of the islands, the Gallos, which comes from the Italian word galli (roosters).
