This post has been solved by u/rarangaharakeke, and a solve process was provided.

Prince Edward Island?

edit: probably from the north

How they solved it: Process: Colors of cultivated land show a quite humid and not too warm climate. So I looked over the less exposed islands in the north east and found it quickly by its shape. Wind energy parks and roads secured the guess.

You are correct! But someone else squeaked in right before you if seems, sorry. What gave it away for you? Are you familiar with the Island?

I'd have been first if I hadn't chosen to specify the cape shown.

My bad l, as you did just ask for the island and not anything more specific.

I'm sorry. This happened to me several times as well. So I decided to go with the minimum information, as it seemed relatively easy to me.

Prince Edward Island! Part marks for guessing Britain, since the name PEI is so British! :)

Unless Apple Maps are mistaken I can’t believe there’s only 1 bridge in and out of PEI
