Template: Infobox Island / Maintenance / height missing

Scrub Iceland is an island in the Caribbean and part of the British overseas territory Anguilla. The island is a little over 8 km ² the largest neighboring island of Anguilla and is located off the northeastern tip of the main island. The sea between the two islands is about 600 m wide.

The expansion of scrub Iceland in the southwest-northeast direction is three and a half miles at a maximum width of about one kilometer. The island has several sandy beaches and rocky coasts otherwise - especially the northeastern tip is more rugged. There are right on Scrub Iceland some tiny cays, the largest island is called Deadman's Cay. The slightly larger neighboring island of Little Scrub Iceland, however, lies north-west.

Scrub Iceland is gently undulating and mostly of scrub (English Scrub ) covering. In the northeast you will find the remains of a runway and a holiday resort. This plant was a front for drug dealers and 1983 the scene of a raid by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration DEA. The island is now uninhabited and only populated by a few goats.
