Why are tropical islands often pictured as paradise?

Asked by Berserker (33548points) December 6th, 2014

The sun, the beach and good times to be had, islands are always considered a paradise on Earth. But why? Is uncharted territory all it’s cracked up to be?

Venemous insects, crazy wildlife who’s territory you might step in, cannibals, insane storms and other messed up weather, diseases you might catch, not to mention all the money it takes to travel out there.
Would you go? Have you been?

A question just for fun, don’t take it too seriously. :)
