## Introduction

"Adamstown" redirects here. See  for the Adamstown in New South Wales.

The [Pitcairn Islands](http://visitpitcairn.pn/) are a loosely grouped handful of tiny islands in the remote South Pacific, farther from any continent than any other inhabited island. The islands are the last British overseas territory in the South Pacific and most isolated British dependency. The rugged main island was settled by the infamous mutineers of HMS Bounty and their Polynesian companions, and most of Pitcairn's mere four dozen current inhabitants are their descendants. They are one of the least-populated entities given an ISO country code (PN).

## Regions

Pitcairn Island — the only inhabited island of the group

Henderson Island — the largest island, a  with several endangered bird species

Oeno Island, Sandy Island — a close pair of islands, the locals' "holiday" spot

Ducie Island — distant from the others, with lots of exotic bird life

## Towns

Adamstown, the capital and sole settlement containing the entire population of the Pitcairn Islands — a scattered village of households on the main eponymous isle, up the Hill of Difficulty from Bounty Bay.

## Understand
History
Pitcairn and Henderson were inhabited by Polynesian peoples from current day French Polynesia in earlier centuries, and Pitcairn visited briefly by Portuguese and British explorers (one of whom gave it his name), but it was deserted when in 1790 the infamous mutineers of HMS Bounty and their Tahitian companions settled there under the leadership of Fletcher Christian. They burned and sank the ship in what is now called Bounty Bay (there was nowhere else to hide it), and founded a village on Pitcairn. At first a rather lawless community of violent drunks, it was "tamed" when John Adams, the last mutineer to avoid accident or murder, converted the women and children to Christianity. They lived there for 24 years before being rediscovered by the British, who allowed the community to continue. Pitcairn was the first Pacific island to become a British colony, in 1838, and today remains the last vestige of that empire in the South Pacific.

Emigration, first to  and mostly to  in the last century, and a nearly-prohibitive approach to immigration have thinned the population from a peak of 233 in 1937 to fewer than 50 today. The island was rocked in 2004 by accusations of chronic and ubiquitous sexual abuse of the community's young female members, including pre-adolescent girls. After an investigation of much of the adult male population, including several who were no longer living there, six men were sentenced to terms in prison. It's unclear whether the Pitcairn society, already hovering at the lower fringes of self-sufficiency, will survive.

Climate
The climate is humid and tropical (the Tropic of Capricorn lies a short distance to the north), with average temperatures ranging from 16°C (60°F) on winter nights to 30°C (85°F) on summer days. Rainfall is moderate with no strong seasonal pattern, just a bit wetter in the winter. The island is subject to infrequent typhoons during the season from November to March.

Landscape
The islands are each unique, with differing origins. Pitcairn is distinctly volcanic, jutting steeply out of the ocean with a peak of 337 m, seemingly a stone's throw from the shoreline (in any direction). As such it has very little of what would be called a "beach", however the word "cliff" gets used a lot, and there are no harbours. Bounty Bay hardly deserves the name, consisting of a small indentation in the shoreline with water deep enough only for small boats without keels and a small sea-level landing area... connected via the Hill of Difficulty to Adamstown.  It is the only island of the group with fresh water sources. Henderson is the largest island, a flat coral formation, but raised 50-100 feet  (15-30 m) above sea level by volcanic activity. It has caves along its shoreline which served as either tombs or ill-fated residences to an ancient people. It might be suitable for building an airstrip if it weren't for all the endangered seabirds that find it an ideal spot to land. Oeno is a small, flat island (accompanied by another sandy island known as "Sandy Island") surrounded by a circular reef, a typical South-Pacific paradise with palm trees, lovely beaches, and a sheltered lagoon. Ducie is distant from the others (over 100 miles (160 km) from Henderson and well over 200 miles from Pitcairn), a circular reef and island, popular with seabirds.

## Get in
The remoteness and ruggedness of Pitcairn's geography, the insularity of its bureaucracy, and the scarcity of its resources conspire to make it a very difficult place to visit. But with enough time, money and flexibility, the Silver Supporter vessel (see below) makes it rather easy to visit Pitcairn.

No visa is needed if you intend to stay 14 days or less on Pitcairn and arrive and depart on the same vessel.

Visitors staying on the island for longer require permission from the governor, because the irregularity of transport means they're effectively residents of the island for the next several weeks or even months. To get permission requires an application in advance, [meeting various conditions](http://www.government.pn/visaInfo.php) and a NZ$300 fee;  +64 9 366-0186

By plane
There is no airstrip in the islands, and it's out of range of land-launched helicopters, so flying is not an option: the largest flat area on Pitcairn would offer a very short runway, and level Henderson Island is both a UNESCO-listed bird sanctuary and inconveniently located. The nearest airport is on Mangareva (GMR) in the , 330 mi away. You can catch a charter vessel from Mangareva.

By boat
Pitcairn Island is accessible to tourists via the island's dedicated passenger/shipping vessel, the [Silver Supporter](https://www.visitpitcairn.pn/mv-silver-supporter), which provides passage from  (in the ) to Pitcairn about 26 times each year (fare NZ$6000 per round trip). The schedule has several consecutive round trips to Mangareva alternating with longer voyages for island residents only to  ().

You will first need to go to Mangareva. Air Tahiti is the only airline carrier offering flights to Mangareva (two flights a week from Tahiti, on Tuesdays and Saturdays). You then catch the airport taxi ferry to Rikitea village on Mangareva (500 one way). The crew of the Claymore will meet you at the wharf in Rikitea and transfer you to the ship. 32 hours later you'll be at Pitcairn. Your stay in Pitcairn will align with the arrival and departure of the ship, and you can [check their schedules online](http://www.visitpitcairn.pn/go_there/silver_supporter_schedule/index.html)

A few commercial cruise ships and private ocean-traversing yachts also visit the island. Sailing from  is relatively practical; from almost anywhere else (e.g., , ) it requires crossing thousands of miles of the Pacific Ocean.

## Get around
There is now one short paved road on Pitcairn (up the Hill of Difficulty from the landing at Bounty Bay to Adamstown), but most routes around Pitcairn Island are dirt trails, generally very rugged. Walking and personal all-terrain vehicles are the main ways to get from one place to another, and a bike is usually available for rent.

## Talk
English is the official language and spoken by everyone. , a mixture of 18th century English and Tahitian with a bit of sailing jargon thrown in, e.g., "all hands" means "everyone", is spoken by the residents amongst themselves.

## See

The remains of the Bounty are in Bounty Bay.  The ship was deliberately burned and sunk by the mutineers, and it's been well picked over by divers in the meantime, but there's still an allure to seeing (what little is left of) the vessel of the true tale that made "Captain Bligh" and "the Bounty" household names.

The Bountys anchor' is on display in front of the Public Hall in the town square, where the library/post office building, and the Adventist church can also be found.

The Pitcairn Island Museum in Adamstown contains artefacts from the Bounty (including Fletcher Christian's Bible), stamps, issues of National Geographic featuring the islands, and other items of local interest.  One of the ship's four cannons is planned to be displayed here.

The island's school lies up in the western "suburbs" of Adamstown.

The grave of John Adams, the last surviving mutineer who first Christianised the community, the only one with a preserved grave.

Fletcher Christian's cave, past the school and further up, is where the lead mutineer is said to have watched for approaching ships and/or hid from his ruthless fellow settlers when necessary.

A Galapagos tortoise named Mr Turpin was left on the island in the early 20th century, and now lives in Tedside on the northwest shore of the island.

Taro Ground in the south of Pitcairn is the largest flat area on the island and site of the island's traditional link to the outside world: its ham radio station.

Flatland is a smaller plateau at the upper extent of Adamstown, with a tennis court, volleyball, and picnic facilities.

Garnet's Ridge, at 300 m one of the highest parts of a tall island, offers great views to both the west and east.

Highest Point is the... highest point on the island, at 337 m.

Down Rope, a cliff on the southeast edge of the island, has ancient Polynesian petroglyphs in its face and an isolated sandy beach at its base.

Gudgeon is a sea-level cave on the southwest side of the island, which hides a sandy beach in a large, wide space carved by the waves.

## Do

If the ocean is calm enough, go swimming in St Paul's Pool, a picturesque tidal pool nestled among the seaside rocks in eastern part of Pitcairn.  (Swimming in the ocean itself generally isn't safe due to the rocky shoreline.)

Sail yourself or perhaps travel with the locals to another of the islands.  Oeno has sandy beaches suitable for swimming, Henderson offers rare opportunities for birdwatching and exploration of ancient caves and both are good for snorkelling or scuba diving among coral reefs and a few shipwrecks. Ducie is over 300 miles (480 km) away, out of range of the islanders' boats, and therefore rarely visited, but is also good for seeing rare birds.

Every year on 23 January, "Bounty Day" is celebrated with a huge community dinner and the burning of a model of the Bounty.

## Buy
Money
USD,EUR,GBP,AUD
The currency used in the Pitcairn Islands is the New Zealand dollar, denoted by the symbol "$" or "NZ$" (ISO code: NZD). It is divided into 100 cents. In this guide, the "$" symbol denotes New Zealand dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Shopping
The internal economy is based primarily on barter, with residents producing much of their own food and sharing supplies from passing freighters or large fish catches communally. When money is used, the New Zealand dollar is the standard currency, but easily-exchanged currencies such as Australian dollars, UK pounds or US dollars will be accepted.

The main locally-produced items for sale are handicrafts (especially woven baskets, models of the Bounty, and carvings of local wildlife out of miro wood harvested from Henderson Island) and honey; and the island's postage stamps (also available by mail overseas) are of interest to philatelists.  Anything else has to be imported, and is priced accordingly.

## Eat
There is a small co-operative general store which stocks imported foodstuffs from New Zealand and French Polynesia, mostly ordered by customers in advance. It's open 3 mornings a week for an hour. The local cooking relies heavily on seafood. Deep-fried nanwi (bluefish) is a local favourite, with red snapper, tuna, whitefish, grouper, wahoo and others also being common. Pilhi is made from puréed fruit (such as banana, sweet potato, or breadfruit) with sugar and milk, then baked to custard consistency. Food staples grown on the island include arrowroot, sweet potatoes, beans, tomatoes, cabbages, pineapples, melons, citrus fruits, bananas and breadfruit. Some families keep poultry and goats.

Other places on island:

Christian's CafeOwned by Steve & Olive Christian. It is open every Friday from 18:30 until late. A bar is also provided for customers.

Browns BakeryIn the square every second Thursday at 17:00, selling freshly baked goods.

Bounty DelectableTakeaway meals is open on Wednesdays. They make the largest burgers on the island.

Betty's BakeryFreshly baked goods made to order.

Fletcher CafeFletcher Cafe is available for coffees, snacks and lunches to order. Dinner can also be provided on request.

## Drink
Alcohol was prohibited on Pitcairn prior to 1991, but is now legal. There is one café and bar, Christian's Café open on Fridays from 18:30 until late.

The Government Store on the island sells alcohol and tobacco at duty free prices.

## Sleep
There are 2 types of accommodation on Pitcairn.

Home-stayArranged prior to your arrival on the island and includes all meals and laundry. Check with your host about rates for telephone and Internet access.

Price$120-200

Listing reviewed2025-10-18

Private self-contained bungalows.

For all travel, bookings and accommodation enquiries go to [Pitcairn's official travel site](https://www.visitpitcairn.pn/) or contact the Pitcairn Island's Tourism Coordinator (tourism@pitcairn.pn).

If you are staying longer than 14 days, visa requirements dictate that you have your accommodation organised before arrival.

Jacq's Place offers accommodation and professional Polynesian massage and acupuncture treatments.

## Work
There are no jobs available to non-residents, only a few professional services (e.g. teacher, nurse, social worker) hired by the government in New Zealand, and a pastor assigned by the international Adventist Church. On the other hand, anyone taking up temporary residence on the island is expected to be self-supporting, and to help with community needs such as crewing the longboats to reach supply vessels.

## Stay healthy
There is a New Zealand doctor on the island. Previous medical practitioners have come from Australia, Canada and New Zealand. The island has a small health clinic with dental and X-ray equipment and emergency medications, but is not equipped to deal with major problems, which may require waiting days or weeks for a nearby passing ship to provide evacuation to a medical facility. The island is out of range of all evacuation helicopters.  This is no place to have a heart attack, stroke, or other serious condition. A full medical check-up a couple weeks before arrival is strongly recommended. Additional ultrasound and basic EKG screening (not generally covered by insurance or universal health care) is a good idea for those over 40, or anyone at extra risk.

## Respect
The population are mostly members of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, following mission work in the late 19th century. Although religious observance has declined, church doctrine strongly influences both public practice and civil law. For example, alcohol was legally prohibited until 1991; dancing, public displays of affection and cigarette smoking are frowned upon; and the Sabbath (Saturday) is consistently considered a day of rest (if not worship).  Reasonably modest, climate-appropriate western clothing is worn.

The trials of several Pitcairn men in 2004 and 2005, including the former mayor and much of the island's workforce, on sexual abuse charges have been very difficult for the close-knit island community, with everyone being a friend or family of at least one of the victims, the suspects, or the convicted. The incident has also brought to the surface tensions over Pitcairn's sovereignty, such as unfamiliar UK laws being adjudicated by New Zealand courts. Strong feelings should be expected, and statements expressing any opinions beyond an acknowledgement of how difficult this has been for the islanders stand a high probability of upsetting someone in your audience.

Don't bring bees or bee keeping equipment. The island's bee population has been certified as disease-free and Pitcairn honey is becoming an important economic activity.

## Connect
Each household now has their own private telephone and most also have internet. The country code is +64, the same as New Zealand. Using the old code of +870 may significantly increase the cost of the call.

In 2017, the British Government implemented a 4G LTE mobile network in Adamstown with shared speeds of 5 Mbit/s across all islanders.

## Cope
Electricity (240 V/50 Hz) is available only for 5 hours in the morning and 5 hours in the evening.

Although there is no broadcast radio or television in the region, most homes are equipped with televisions and VHS/DVD players. If you bring any recordings with you, be sure they are PAL format and DVD region 4 (or bring your own DVD player), as the locals' equipment supports those standards, not NTSC or other DVD regions. Some PAL DVD players will play region-free NTSC, though it's better not to take a chance on anything important.

## Go next
If you'll be sailing your own ship, the nearest islands are in , roughly to the WNW: the isolated  are 330 miles (530 km) away, the Acteon Group of the  are 450 miles away, and  and the rest of the  are a mere 1,300 miles (2,100 km) off.   is about the same distance in the opposite direction.

Passing freighters will likely be bound for either  or .

Local reading and routesCoffee is a small-scale crop with no guaranteed café service. Arrange meals and drinks with your host and voyage provider; landing depends on sea conditions.

### Pitcairn begins at sea
Pitcairn has no airport. The passenger and supply vessel MV Silver Supporter connects the journey with the Gambier Islands; confirm the particular sailing and boarding arrangements before linking flights. Official visitor information describes a crossing of at least two nights at sea. Allow a buffer and avoid inflexible commitments immediately after your return. Isolation, landing arrangements and steep terrain are real elements of the journey, not just romantic descriptions.

The government distinguishes visits of up to 14 days arriving and departing on the same vessel from longer stays. The first category may be applied for on arrival when requirements are met; stays over 14 days require advance permission. Health, character, financial and insurance conditions apply. Tourism requires medical cover including evacuation. Check which arrangement applies before booking, especially if changing ships: this distinction matters more than a generic 'visa-free' label.

### Walking days and nights beneath the stars
Build your stay around Adamstown, the square and encounters with your hosts. Christian's Cave offers a perspective on the landscape and Bounty history; assess the terrain and conditions before climbing. The wharf and Bounty Bay reveal the daily relationship with the sea, but a photograph of calm water does not certify safe swimming. Seek local advice before each outing and leave room for changing weather.

The Mata ki te Rangi dark-sky sanctuary invites you to reserve a clear evening for the sky without filling every hour. Henderson, Ducie and Oeno belong to the group, but they are not guaranteed routine day trips from the inhabited island. Henderson is a World Heritage Site with particularly fragile ecosystems. If an expedition includes the outer islands, ask about its specific access and biosecurity arrangements. Plan Pitcairn around what you can experience there, rather than accumulating unlikely landings.
