Told my mum about it the other day, and after doing some research, text her to let her know that the Islands are 2700km from Perth and the population is about 600 folk.

She text back saying a long distance few people. I asked her what the negatives were

Clearly, before I got more serious I'd be doing a LOT more research. For example I'd imagine cost of living would be high, especially food given that all of it needs to be brought in. Access to medical services would be another obvious challenge.

However, I'm just wondering if anyone here has been there before? Can you provide any details of your experience? Were you there for work/holiday? What did you do? How did you find it? etc.

Any and all information greatly received.
Beautiful yatching destination.
