Everything We Know About The New Aussie Dating Show Stranded On Honeymoon Island
Farmer Wants A Wife 2025 is almost over, but fear not, the reality TV gods have finally answered our prayers with Seven's upcoming new reality TV dating show, Stranded On Honeymoon Island.
Created by the same team that brought us Married At First Sight Australia (Endemol Shine Australia), Stranded On Honeymoon Island might be wilder than anything we've seen on Aussie television, which is really saying something. It's essentially Survivor meets MAFS, which already sounds like a ride.
Ahead, everything we know about Stranded On Honeymoon Island so far.
What is Stranded On Honeymoon Island?
So, imagine Married At First Sight but if everyone was stuck on a deserted island. Yes, it's exactly that.

Twelve singles take a leap of dating faith and try to find love. After a speed dating event, couples are matched and marry, before being whisked away to a deserted island for 21 days in nothing but their wedding attire.
With no devices, no distractions and no civilisation around them, the couples settle into their new relationship and get acquainted with who they've just married, while they try and navigate survival on a remote island.
It's being billed as the "most radical and extreme dating experience ever seen on television" and I don't think they're wrong about that one.
While it's new to Australia, the format has been seen in Belgium, Portugal, Germany, the Netherlands and the Czech Republic.
Is there a trailer I can watch?
The trailer has dropped, and it shows a few of the singles heading on out to the South Pacific, jumping into the ocean in their wedding kits, and clashing and pashing as they discover who they've really been matched with.
The trailer also shows hints of major blowups and drama, with one bride accusing her husband of lying to her. So, essentially, it's your classic MAFS dinner party but just on a deserted beach. Love that!
What is Stranded On Honeymoon Island's air date?
Stranded On Honeymoon Island is premiering on Monday, June 23 at 7.30pm. It will air on Channel 7 and 7plus, and is bound to fill the MAFS-shaped hole in our hearts.

TikTok influencer and comedian Amy, 30, has been paired with television host Mike, 38, so this could either be a match made in heaven, or a big clash. Can you really have two *stars* in a relationship?

Singer and dancer Brie, 29, is looking for a "hot, beachy, smart, kind, bad boy, introverted, silly, funny, committed and adventurous [man] with good hygiene". It might be difficult for someone to tick all these boxes, but hey, miracles can happen. Her match is electrician Byron, a 34-year-old who describes himself as "easy-going, sentimental and thoughtful".
