Fancy living on a beautiful tropical island, sipping coconut juice on pristine white beaches - and getting paid for it?
A tiny island community in Far North Queensland is looking for new caretakers to look after a small cluster of seven holiday houses just off the beach.
Bedarra Island, just 10km off the coast of Mission Beach, south of Cairns, is one of Australia's few largely untouched tropical island escapes.

Work includes maintaining the paths that link the houses and clearing out the gutters alongside them as they become overloaded during the wet season
The job pays $450 for 15 hours work a week and comes with a free newly-refurbished cabin steps from the beach.
East Bedarra Body Corporate chairman John Herbert said the job was a chance to 'escape the city rat race' for a relaxed lifestyle.
'The island is absolutely idyllic, it's one of the few true tropical rainforest islands in Queensland,' he said.
'There's rainforests and coconut palms on the magnificent beaches, which are some of the best beaches in Queensland.
'There's good fishing around the island too that the caretakers could enjoy from their boat.'
A furnished one-bedroom cabin with solar power is provided for the couple to live in full time, but was too small to accommodate children
The house soon after it was refurbished but before furniture was put inside
About 20 people have applied in the four days since the job was advertised on the weekend.
Mr Herbert said the position would suit a couple who were either semi-retired or were fairly young and looking for a temporary escape from city life.
They needed to be physically fit to do the manual labour of maintaining the settlement's infrastructure and have knowledge of petrol motors.
Work included maintaining the paths that link the houses and clearing out the gutters alongside them that become overloaded during the wet season.
In dry season they would need to reconstruct an parts washed away by rain during wet season, and clear them with a leaf blower and chainsaw.
'We have snakes on the island and they like to sun themselves on the leaves,' Mr Herbert said.

Caretakers also needed to maintain the natural spring that provides water to the island, and the solar power system that runs off lead acid batteries.
Extra income could be available from cleaning and handyman work on residents' homes, though most of them already have their own staff.

Caretakers need their own boat to get to and from the island as there are no shops or other services there.
'It's an isolated lifestyle, but you meet people who rent the houses for a week or so at a time from all over the world,' Mr Herbert said.

Bedarra Island,...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
