Ben Saul-Garner paid around $3.7k to be stranded on a remote island in Indonesia. He spent 10 days there alone, exploring nature and living off coconuts and crab. This experience was organized by Docastaway, a company that specializes in extreme isolation travel. Founded by Alvaro Cerezo, Docastaway offers clients the opportunity to escape the modern world and be alone on an uninhabited island. Cerezo personally finds remote islands and negotiates with the owners to rent them out. Providing the illusion of complete solitude requires careful planning to ensure no fishing boats or debris are visible on the island. Cerezo’s business faces competition from reality TV shows and the wider threats of pollution and industrialization on remote islands.
