I've seen in on a few American sites, there are tours IIRC.

Someone told me about this place a few weeks ago, really makes you wanna jump on a plane and go don't it! There's a island in New York aswell that's simalar, they used to put all the people on there who had TB back in the day. Can't remember the name of it but I stumbled accross it whist lookin at battle ship island on google. Check it out, it's good viewing!

Looks awesome doesn't it?!
My Chernobyl group have discussed it as a Pripyat alternative for the future. I didn't realise there was an official tour operator though, I thought it was all "bribe local fishermen" etc.!
