9. Majuli Island, India

If islands on the seas and oceans are too mainstream for you then give this offbeat island peeping out of river Brahmaputra a try. Majuli is the largest river island in the world. Tucked away in the North-Eastern fringes of India, Majuli is mostly inhabited by people undisturbed by ‘modernity’. It can offer some rare sneak-peek into the life of the tropical tribes. With greenery galore Majuli is also famous as a bird watching spot!
