A Supervillain Lair (or a Hero's Headquarters) At Sea! Isolated from any inference of those pesky heroes, our resident baddies can concoct their schemes of world domination in peace. At least until the third act.
The primary advantage to using such bases is that its isolation and distance from inhabited areas or other landmasses allows the story to explain how its supervillain or evil genius is running an elaborate, high-tech base swarming with minions and superweapons without attracting excess notice.
Bonus points if the island, or part of it, is shaped like a skull. Extra points for having an active volcano form part of the base, despite the obvious problems with heat keeping such things from being practical in real life.
A Sub-Trope of Island of Mystery.
Often equipped with a Den of Iniquity. See also Elaborate Underground Base and Underwater Base, two other popular ways for secretive individuals to avoid notice. Overlap is often common.

It was originally Hydrobase, an artificial island originally stationed just outside of New York Harbor in the Atlantic. Once the base of operations of Sub-Mariner foe Dr. Hydro, it became the longtime home base for Dr. Walter Newell, the government operative Stingray. He later leased out space on the island to the Avengers for an airfield after the FAA banned them from flying their Quinjets through Manhattan, and it even served as their temporary headquarters after the Masters of Evil had trashed the original Avengers Mansion, until Doctor Doom's robots sunk the island. It was later salvaged by Namor and Stingray, and eventually relocated to the Pacific, off the coast of California, by the time Sunspot acquired it.

Cobra Island in G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero was introduced in the two-part episode "There's No Place Like Springfield", where the titular town was staged for a Faked Rip Van Winkle plot to get Shipwreck to reveal a top-secret formula he'd been entrusted with. In the second season, it became Cobra's permanent base of operations with the completion of the Terrordrome.

From Russia with Love. The training area where Rosa Klebb meets Red Grant is on 'SPECTRE Island' (wherever that is). The trope is downplayed as its island nature is an Informed Attribute, but as it's a Deadly Training Area this would be for the same reasons of isolation and security that they'd need for a Supervillain Lair.

The Dresden Files: From Cold Days on, Demonreach has become this for Harry. Its secluded location and powerful Genius Loci make it far more defensible than his old apartment, but at the same time more vulnerable, as the island is the site of a massive supernatural prison constructed by the original Merlin to hold some of the baddest bads in the setting, and some of Harry's enemies are interested in setting those baddies loose. The isolation from his friends and allies his relocation to the island has caused is also a minor plot point.

Dungeon Keeper Ami features several — all of which score bonus points for covering the active volcano, skull-shaped cave, and so on. Just not all at the same time. Zarekos' Islands were riddled with lava-filled fissures, due to the tremendous dark energy contamination, which Ami inherited from him following his defeat. Ami, naturally, repurposed them for use as geothermal plants. Later, the battle of Dreadfog Island takes place on an island in a large swamp — and the island sports a skull-shaped cave incorporated into the fortifications.

Mazinger Z. Big Bad and Mad Scientist Dr. Hell had two Island Bases: Bardos, an ancient Greek island full of underground mazes and labyrinths where he found an army of Humongous Mecha: and Hell Island, an island near from the Japanese coast where he moved later in the series. It was a barren, rocky islet. A low mountain rose in the center, and several giant faces had been carved on its slopes. The Dragon Baron Ashura also had an Island Base doubled like a Cool Ship: the submarine fortress Salude.

The James Bond films feature several examples:
Dr. No's base on Crab Key off the coasts of Jamaica, albeit more of an Elaborate Underground Base.
From Russia with Love. The training area where Rosa Klebb meets Red Grant is on 'SPECTRE Island' (wherever that is). The trope is downplayed as its island nature is an Informed Attribute, but as it's a Deadly Training Area this would be for the same reasons of isolation and security that they'd need for a Supervillain Lair.
You Only Live Twice. Blofeld's rocket base is under an extinct volcano on the Japanese island of Matsu.
Blofeld held headquarters on an oil rig off the coast of Baja, California, in Diamonds Are Forever, technically an island.
Kananga's island of San Monique in Live and Let Die, but it isn't really isolated: it has a tourist trade. Too bad there are poppy fields, voodoo totems with guns, Baron Samedi, and a Shark Pool.
Francisco Scaramanga's private island in The Man with the Golden Gun, famously filmed on the isle of Khao Phing Kan, Phang Nga Bay, in Thailand.
Stromberg's Atlantis base in The Spy Who Loved Me is a giant platform that can both rise above the sea and submerge itself off the coasts of Sardinia.
Octopussy's palace (actually called the Lake Palace) is on a small island in the middle of a lake near Udaipur, India.
In GoldenEye, Janus' base and its giant antenna to control the eponymous weapon have been installed and camouflaged on an island off the coasts of Cuba.
Silva's island in Skyfall used to be inhabited, until he faked a chemical leak, causing the inhabitants to evacuate. It's actually the abandoned Hashima Island off Nagasaki in Japan.
In No Time to Die, Lyutsifer Safin has a former Soviet military base on (seemingly) one of the Kuril islands, which are disputed between Russia and Japan (actually filmed on the Faroe Islands). Unlike other examples it's a justified trope as the Elaborate Underground Base was already built by someone else, and workers are shown in the process of turning it into a Supervillain Lair.

Much like its' forebear (see "Puppet Shows" below), the infamous live-action Thunderbirds movie has Tracy Island (in reality several islands in the Seychelles), which looks even cooler in live-action, and now it has two pools (since the film crew realized having a rocket launch next to the main house wasn't the best idea). Most of the movie takes place there as The Hood and his goons stage a takeover of the island (trapping most of the Tracys aboard the damaged Thunderbird 5 in orbit) to steal the Thunderbird craft and use them to rob the world's biggest banks, leaving International Rescue responsible.

During the spy spoof arc of Dan and Mab's Furry Adventures, Dr. Jyrras' base is an island with an extinct volcano. Filled with orange pillows to simulate lava. It's supposed to be incredibly secret, but the agency has detailed plans.

Avengers Island, home base of the New Avengers, which was originally A.I.M.'s (it was probably called differently then) until Sunspot bought it. As in the whole organization. The island base was extra.
It was originally Hydrobase, an artificial island originally stationed just outside of New York Harbor in the Atlantic. Once the base of operations of Sub-Mariner foe Dr. Hydro, it became the longtime home base for Dr. Walter Newell, the government operative Stingray. He later leased out space on the island to the Avengers for an airfield after the FAA banned them from flying their Quinjets through Manhattan, and it even served as their temporary headquarters after the Masters of Evil had trashed the original Avengers Mansion, until Doctor Doom's robots sunk the island. It was later salvaged by Namor and Stingray, and eventually relocated to the Pacific, off the coast of California, by the time Sunspot acquired it.
A.I.M. previously had an island base simply known as A.I.M. Island. They later conquered the small Caribbean island of Boca Caliente. Tony Stark tried to get the US government to liberate Boca Caliente from A.I.M., to no avail.

Phineas and Ferb has several examples of this:
Professor Destructicon (Kevin to his friends), one of Dr. Doofenshmirtz's mentors, had a secret-hideout shaped island with the letter "D" carved into it.
Doof at one point has an island base on Lake Winemahkateekihaha, complete with a boiling pit of lava.
He also has a lair on Spleen Island, which was cheap due to old legends about a sea hag that haunts it.
Later, he rents another cheap island: "Pink Unicorn Island", a big pink island shaped like a unicorn. Doof would have preferred the nearby Skull Island, but it was much more expensive.
Perhaps the swankiest of all of his lairs is the lair in Montevillebad that he got in an evil exchange program. It comes with all the classic villainous weapons, including a rocket and a catchy theme song.

Adventure The Island of Doctor Destroyer. The title island Destruga holds the secret base of Doctor Destroyer, from which he plans to launch the Hypnoray satellite and Mind Control the entire world. In Classic Organizations, after being destroyed in its original location Neutral Ground relocates to this exact island, turning from a fairly posh club for supers of all kinds into an island resort in the process. Doctor Destroyer's legacy is brought up in the relevant chapter and used as a plot point in at least one example adventure outline.
The Champions II supplement has rules for constructing superhero bases. When choosing a base's location, one option is to build it on an island.
Malachite, a genetic experiment Gone Horribly Right, took over a string of uninhabited islands that formerly belonged to Portugal. After the troops Portugal sent to reclaim them were wiped out, the government decided they weren't worth fighting for. Malachite has managed to get them declared a sovereign nation, with him as its ruler, in order to gain diplomatic immunity.

Evil Genius goes for a twofer, having you tunnel into the mountain on your "Uninhabited Desert Island of Undisclosed Location (tm)". Midway through you're forced to move islands, because if you're going to use satellite-based doomsday weapons it's obligatory to launch them out the crater of an extinct volcano. Evil Genius 2 likewise has the player building their headquarters into a remote island, but they're given a choice of islands at the start of the game, and use the same one for their whole playthrough.

Cobra had a temporary island base in the first issue of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero, and later gained a larger and more permanent one in international waters in the Gulf of Mexico by having the Joes help them create it. Specifically, they tricked the Joes into detonating a fault line at just the right location to cause enough upheaval to create the island. Cobra even had an army of laywers standing by at the UN to lay their sovereign claim to the newly-formed Cobra Island. It serves as the focal point for several stories, including the original Cobra Civil War.

Swellhead. The protagonists are sent to investigate strange events on the long-deserted and distant island of Skerra, somewhere on the ill-defined border between Britain and Ireland which for historical reasons even has a monarchy (not that she's ever set foot on the island before now) and is therefore an independent nation. Turns out an Elaborate Underground Base has been discovered on Skerra, despite the sheer impossibility of constructing one without vast resources and public knowledge. One which, as they delve further into it, looks increasingly like a classic Supervillain Lair... It turns out the base was constructed by a supervillain in an Alternate Universe, which is encroaching into our reality.

In No Time to Die, Lyutsifer Safin has a former Soviet military base on (seemingly) one of the Kuril islands, which are disputed between Russia and Japan (actually filmed on the Faroe Islands). Unlike other examples it's a justified trope as the Elaborate Underground Base was already built by someone else, and workers are shown in the process of turning it into a Supervillain Lair.

Dr. Franklin's Island, as an "argument" with H.G. Wells' story below, takes place on an island that appears to be deserted from the beach, but go inland past the nigh impenetrable jungle and Dr. Franklin runs quite a large facility in the caldera of a long extinct volcano.

GURPS Illuminati. One potential location for the Illuminati main base is on a private secret island that has been erased from the world's maps. It could even be in the Bermuda Triangle — the reason so many ships and planes have disappeared there is because they got too close to the Illuminati base and saw something they weren't supposed to see.

The Bridge features an unusual variant: Solgell Island and the rest of the Mu Archipelago are the Home Base of the Terran Defender Kaiju faction. Given the nature of the Terran Defenders, their base isn't a building, it's the island itself. Many neutrally-aligned kaiju are allowed by the Terrans to live on the islands and in the surrounding waters, with the understanding that if the islands themselves are attacked by the enemy Mutation faction, the neutrals will pitch in to help drive the Mutations off. Guess what happens in the opening chapter of the fic.

In The Transformers (Marvel), Shockwave had the Decepticons construct an artificial island base off the coast of Florida, the surface of which concealed the fact that it was also a fully-functional space cruiser. Ratbat later turned the island into a vacation resort called Club Con, even going so far as to having Starscream appear in a television commercial for the resort. The base/ship was destroyed when the Underbase-empowered Starscream crashed Scorponok's ship into it.

Great Mazinger: Marquis Janus' Home Base was at once a Cool Ship (it was mobile and could swim or dive underwater), an Island Base (it was shaped like an island) and a Volcano Lair (an artificial volcano had been built in the center).
