    Overview

    The Hans Lollik Islands are two islands in the U.S. Virgin Islands owned by Larry Page. In 2014, Page bought Great Hans Lollik Island ("GHL") and its smaller neighbor, Little Hans Lollik, for $23 million. GHL is about 8,000 feet (2½ km) beyond the central northshore of St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, separated from St. Thomas by the Leeward Passage. Little Hans Lollik and Pelican Cay lie to the north of Hans Lollik on the same shelf. The major part of the benthic zone around Hans Lollik is rocky and supports a dense diverse coral habitat. In Danish, "Hans Lollik" means "Hans from Lolland", believed to refer to a sailor by that name.
