About Pitcairn Island

Pitcairn Island, settled by the famous Bounty mutineers and their Tahitian companions, is one of the most isolated inhabited places on the planet, reachable only by a long sea voyage. Its small population descends largely from the original settlers, and the rugged volcanic island offers dramatic cliffs, clear waters and a tangible connection to one of seafaring history's most famous stories.
