Mystery Island · Lost City of Geraptiku

Mystery Island is a tropical island of Neopia, discovered on 3rd August 2000. It is noted for its native population of the Coconut People and a giant volcano.

Mystery Island has become a major tourist resort, features many games, shops, the Trading Post, and the first Training School. There is a tour of the island an owner can take their Neopets on for a small fee. In the summer, the weather is usually very hot, at around 40 degrees, with very little rain, but it is usually very wet in the late fall and winter months with lots of rain and sometimes snow.

The Island is home to the Faerie Jhuidah, who overlooks the Cooking Pot and the Trading Post. For some time, the Island held a giant golden statue of Donna, who won the Sacrificers plot, and in 2005 the Lost City of Geraptiku was rediscovered. Mystery Island is also the site of many of Jake the adventurer's exploits. Every March, Mystery Island celebrates Gadgadsbogen, a festival where new varieties of fruit appear.

The two islets nearby are called Umbuku Island, where the Island Mystic Lives, and Tikutaku Island, where three stone heads stand in monument to a hero from the Island's past.

+==Inhabitants==
-Mystery Island's [[Altador Cup|Yooyuball]] team is led by [[Teylore Nix]] and the unstoppable brute force of [[Volgoth]]. They entered the 2006 Altador Cup with a punishing offensive arsenal few teams could hope to keep pace with, and were the odds-on favourite to bring home the cup despite the shaky status of their goalkeeper. After defeating [[Faerieland]] in Round One, however, Mystery Island's scoring duo was stopped by [[Krawk Island]] goaltender [[Garven Hale]]. The following year, Mystery Island has the same roster, yet the team is quick to point out they're more wiser and reliant on brains than sheer speed and brute force, making it seem their defeat humbled them to bring out their very best.
-Team positions are as follows (bolded notes the Team Captain):
