You can get to the Cocos Keeling Islands with a big boat, or take a plane from Perth. The kite beach is east of the airport on the West Island.Edit
Don't walk across the runway of the airport. Keep enough distance.Edit
There is only one pub on the island. If you can't drink like a fish, stay home. This is a serious pub for professionals only. You will drink until you vomit blood and screw someones wife or steal their car. Come prepared to do battle. Don't stay less than a month. This is the real deal.Edit
