Bikeman Island

Bikeman is in the middle of Tarawa's lagoon
Nippon causeway, linking Bairiki and Betio

Bikeman Island is a submerged islet about a half-hour's canoe ride northeast of Betio, Kiribati. Due to changing currents and the construction of a causeway between Betio and Bairiki, Bikeman has been submerged since the early 1990s. If one were to stand on Bikeman today, the water would reach up to one's knees.[1]
