capri

'this one?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'carp at sea by island' is the wordplay.
'at sea' indicates an anagram.
'by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'island' becomes 'i'.
'carp' anagrammed gives 'capr'.
'capr'+'i'='CAPRI'
