At the moment, we have approximately 950 people, however we hope for more people to join soon! All the different people are families, friends, tourists and authors (who have come to write books based on islands). Some of the families and friends are just visiting; however some are here to live! Some have been here for more than a year; however some only came under 4 months ago! The first people to discover this island were sailors (100) out to sea on a cruise in 1979(they only came for a stop off though), anyway, and so when they got back home (which was three years later) they told all their friends and family about the island and how great they thought it was! The first people to actually live here though, were a couple hundred families six years later (in 1985!) Now people are not the only things that live on the island........... There are animals too. We have a range of them! There are animals such as: monkeys, cheetahs, jaguars and fish (in our aquarium)! **

 * The very first people to arrive were the sailors (explained in the last paragraph). However all the other people who are here now, arrived dramatically in a tragic way! **
 * 115 people were on a boat for a holiday, on a cold night! All the passengers sensed a storm coming on... and they were right! The storm went on and on with high winds and lighting. Also storms on the sea are more dangerous than others! The boat went up, down, forwards and backwards, nothing could keep the boat still! Soon the boat crashed into a huge rock leaving a massive hole at the bottom! Luckily there were life boats for people to quickly jump on, however there were not enough. So some passengers had to gather pieces of raft to grab on to, in order to float! **
 * Soon enough, after floating in the middle of nowhere they spotted land, so of course it was our island. When they jumped into the life boats they took little belongings with them so strangely enough they had brought enough to live for 2 months! **
 * After that even more and more people came to our island . **
