And it looks like the channels are fighting over it, with an insider telling The Sun Online: "It's in the middle of a bidding war between channels but it'll end up airing globally - it's huge.
The source added: "The boat will go between islands and they're looking for people who aren't famous - they want normal people who'll win the public's hearts, just like on Love Island.
