I'm a bit of a fan of small, remote islands, and my attention has just been drawn to the existence of the Aleutians (in that I know they existed, but I never really thought it would be possible to go visit them, and I've just realised that of course it is!).

Just wondered if any of you had been there, and what would be your thoughts about going there on a holiday? I am into wildlife and birding so was thinking that would need to be my main amusement, but I may be underestimating the islands and their attractions!

Is there a tourist industry in the Aleutians, or would people look at me like I was from another planet?
