It's indicative of how much time I spend here that the first person I thought of when I read this article was Taly: The world's best secret islands.

5. Ulleungdo, South Korea
It is easy to see the appeal of tiny Ulleungdo. Midway between South Korea and Japan, this rugged volcanic island is said to have no pollution, no thieves and no snakes - in other words, this is perfect hiking country. Ferries run daily from the mainland to the tiny port at Dodong-ri, where trails climb to the rocky summit of Seonginbong Peak (984m). If you want to really push the boat out, continue to the Dokdo islands - a tiny collection of outcrops that are hotly disputed between Japan and South Korea.

No pollution or snakes?? If only no spiders....

Still...this is my choice!

Ah, I forgot about the cabana boy requirement.

And, Khross was my second thought, actually. But, thinking of Taly on the beach is somehow more fun than the image of some guy sitting there in a metal mask, alone, brooding, plotting world domination.

This is the island I like, though :

2. Torres Strait Islands, Australia
As far as you can go in Oz without falling off the map, the Torres Strait Islands are Australia as it might have been if Europeans had never arrived. Spilling north from the tip of Cape York, the 274 islands in the Torres Strait preserve a unique tribal culture that bridges the divide between Aboriginal Australia and Papua New Guinea. The Great Barrier Reef is right on the doorstop and there are airstrips and hotels on Thursday Island and Horn Island, but access to other islands is at the discretion of local tribal councils.
