You've been wondering whether there's any place left in the world that's still close to perfect.
Well, there is.
Just over two hours from Sydney and Brisbane, and even closer to New Zealand, Norfolk offers a true island experience.
Beautiful clean beaches, rolling green hills with classic pine trees and breathtaking panoramic views
A place to enjoy and relax. Or you can take in some quality tax-free shopping, play a game of golf on an oceanfront course, experience horse-riding in the hilltops, enjoy a casual walk in fresh crisp air followed by a cliff top breakfast and romantically dine the night away... All amongst unique history and culture.
Which place could offer so much? Well this is Norfolk Island, a tiny self governing island - actually an extinct volcano - in the South Pacific.
The world has few unspoiled places like Norfolk Island. Most people don't even lock their cars or houses.
There is no stress, no traffic problems (except the cows have the right of way), no unemployment, no income tax, no snakes or poisonous spiders.
For you visitor, the Island’s history, natural beauty, myriad of activities and friendly hospitality create a holiday you’ll never forget.
"Paradise" is how Captain James Cook described Norfolk Island in 1774. After two convict settlements, the Pitcairn people, descendants of the Bounty mutineers, arrived in the late 1800s. They have maintained and cultivated their distinctive culture and language, and preserved the rich history and natural magnificence of the Island.
Your "favourite memory" of Norfolk Island could well be sitting on the beach at Emily Bay with a very inexpensive bottle of tax free champagne watching an impossibly large sun disappear into the South Pacific... then, the sky, sea and early settlement buildings at Kingston slowly turn a brilliant red.
