Mantah Corp Island Size?

I've not watched all of Camp Cretaceous yet but I'm curious if there was any indication given as to the size of the Mantah Corp Island relative to Isla Nublar since it's the island of which I've been able to find the least information about. I know it's at least large enough to have multiple biomes but I've been unable to find anything more specific at all. Do we just not know?

For the moment, yes. We don't know and hopefully some day it will be figured out or there will be more to it than what has been released. Right now at this moment in time, this is the best image we have for it:

I hope some day that more details come to light like size, location, and occupants as well as more detailed information about the facilities itself present on the island.

The island's size appears to be a little smaller than Nublar's, according to this image:

Note that this isn't an accurate depiction of the islands' respective locations, though---it's more just a travel indicator showing their progress. In actuality they'd be essentially swapped, since Mantah Corp Island is closer to the mainland than Nublar, so it's to the southeast. There's also the S5 plot element about it being located directly on a fault line, placing it directly on the subduction zone between the Cocos Plate (where Nublar is) and the Caribbean Plate (which includes Costa Rica). That places the island roughly in this zone:

As for its size in greater detail, you can get a pretty good look at it here, where the biodomes are shown in comparison to the whole island. Most of the island is as of yet undeveloped, with the facility being nestled within the inactive caldera on one side.

Ok so using that image I mocked up a to scale Mantah Corp Island based on the Jurassicpedia JW Nublar Map's scale.

We have most of a topographic map already it seems so it wouldn't be too hard to draw up a full topographic map of the island.


Though just as a minor note I am now curious what these two islands are meant to be.

Odds are there're other minor islands in the Gulf, smaller than the ones we tend to spend time on.

I think this will be one of those mysteries we'll never get a satisfying resolution or even answered questions on considering how unpopular that season of Camp Cretaceous was for people, unfortunately. Either way, though we can only share what we know.
