Isola is a common word used in Italy to describe a landmass surrounded by water. Italy is home to many beautiful islands, such as Sicily, Sardinia, and Capri, which are popular tourist destinations. These islands offer stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and unique cultural experiences.

In addition to natural islands, there are also man-made islands in Italy. For example, Venice is built on a group of small islands connected by bridges and canals. The city's historic center is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and attracts millions of visitors each year.

The word isola can also be used metaphorically to describe a situation or place that is isolated or cut off from the rest of the world. For instance, someone might say they feel like they're on an isola when they're alone in a remote location with no access to technology or other people.
