Norfolk Island Tour

 

Norfolk is a small island in the middle of the South Pacific. The nearest land is New Caledonia which is 767 kms to the north, New Zealand 1073km to the south and Australia 1400km to the west.

The island has a unique beauty of its own with its renowned tall majestic pines, sheer cliff faces, coral reefs, beautiful beaches and organic produce. Almost one third of the island is devoted to National Parks and Reserves.

Norfolk Island is of outstanding historic importance as a convict settlement was established there between 1788-1855. The site of the penal colony is listed as World Heritage.
