From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Faraway Island (Japanese: さいはてのことう Utmost Island) is an island in a distant location from Hoenn, only visitable in Emerald. Its location appears on the Old Sea Map and Mr. Briney returns a favor to the player by helping him or her sail to this island on the ship moored in Lilycove City.
Sign
On the island is a sign with old, fading writing dated the 6th day of a month; in the English localization, this month ends in "ber", but in the Japanese version it is only known that it is a month name. Also, exclusively in the Japanese version is a remnant of a signature at the end of the message, ジ ji; this is commonly assumed to be Mr. Fuji (or Dr. Fuji in some cases if the two are considered separate characters).
This island could be the Guyanan jungle referenced in the Pokémon Mansion journals.

Pokémon Adventures
Faraway Island first appeared in Mirage is Far Away, in which Mr. Briney reported to Kimberly that he managed to find the island without the Old Sea Map. He told her Mew was there but it was alarmed by his presence and flew away from the island.
The place later appeared in The Final Showdown VIII, when all the rental Pokémon at Battle Frontier were calmed by Emerald using pellets with soil from the Pokémon's birthplace. Gold explained he was able to affect many different Pokémon using the same soil because it was taken from the home of Mew, who is said to possess the genes of all Pokémon.
