Yes, it is. However, it appears that according to legend, that is where "Atlantis" was. Read the attached notes on the file.

Thanx Mickey! I was curious wich location somebody would point at. Offcourse nobody knows for sure where Atlantis is, but some people think otherwise. I believe Atlantis is, according to Plato, located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Also the Azores, Indonesia and Cyprus are named as possible locations by people on the internet.

Default wait a second

wait a second look slightly just to the left of the placemark. There is a city or an island or something underwater. Looks like a small little island tell me if I'm wrong. The so claimed island is completly underwater. Does anyone think this perhaps is Atlantis?

Default Atlantis: Bimini

Here's another possibility, with some rather compelling reasoning.
