A small island (aka. end island) is a roughly hemispherical cluster of end stone blocks found within its respective biome.
Generation
Small islands are generated from Y=55 to Y=70 around the outer islands. The probability that a small island tries to generate in each chunk is 1⁄14. It generates successfully when in a 
small end islands biome or at a chunk where the noise value fits. In Java Edition, if it tries generate a small island in a chunk, there's an 1⁄4 probability to try to generate another small island in this chunk. The two islands often overlap with each other. In Bedrock Edition, if the chunk's noise value fits, there's also a probability of 1⁄4 to re-generate another island, but at the exact same position, which makes the two islands look like a single island.
Small islands also generate when an end gateway spawns on the outer islands if the chunk does not provide any end stone.
