Pitcairn Island (Scenic Cruising)

Lying below the tropic of Capricorn, halfway between New Zealand and the Americas, the Pitcairn Island group is surely one of the most remotely inhabited in the world. A well deserved title, indeed, Pitcairn Island is the final resting place of the H.M.S. Bounty and its mutineers. Later, Pitcairn became the first Pacific island to become a British colony. Today it remains a breathtakingly beautiful retreat from the world.
