How remote is it?
It is the most remote inhabited archipelago in the world, lying approximately 2,787 kilometres (1,732 mi) from Cape Town in South Africa, 2,437 kilometres (1,514 mi) from Saint Helena, 3,949 kilometres (2,454 mi) from Mar del Plata in Argentina, South America and 4,002 kilometres (2,487 mi) from the Falkland Islands.
There is no airport and the island is only accessible by sea. However, you can't just go to Cape Town and hop on a boat. Visiting the island requires months of planning. All visitors first need approval from the Island Council and will be required to get a local police certificate in advance.
The population is 200, meaning everyone on the island would have seen Thriller at some point.
