I had a house on Rattlesnake Island for many years.

The only land-based Internet service was DSL.

You could use a phone, and has been mentioned.

.....OR...... You could do what I did for a number of years, and that was to find someone on the mainland, whose house you can see from your location. Then bring in standard cable TV based high speed Internet to that house, or split the existing service with the home owner, etc.... Then use a point to point wireless link, designed for the purpose, to achieve connectivity between the two locations (yours on the Island, and your mainland spot).

I did this for several years, and it works perfectly.
