Titanian Sea and Islands in it
Caption NASA:"This radar image, obtained by Cassini's radar instrument during a near-polar flyby on Feb. 22, 2007, shows a big island smack in the middle of one of the larger lakes imaged on Saturn's moon Titan. This image offers further evidence that the largest lakes are at the highest latitudes. 
The island is about 90 Km (approx. 62 miles) by 150 Km (approx. 93 miles) across, about the size of Kodiak Island in Alaska or the Big Island of Hawaii. 
The island may actually be a peninsula connected by a bridge to a larger stretch of land. As you go farther down the image, several very small lakes begin to appear, which may be controlled by local topography. 

This image was taken in synthetic aperture mode at 700 mt (2300 feet) resolution. North is toward the left. The image is centered at about 79° North Lat. and 310° West Long".
