The World of Norfolk logoWelcome back to Earth in the The World of Norfolk, 290 South Pacific

Explore and enjoy our world with BAUNTI ESCAPES.  Our world is so different.  It is a world of pared-back simplicity.  A place to reboot.  A place that many want their world to be like.

Our world is home to a wonderful PEOPLE.  Over 20 nationalities live here, but most notably it is home to the Pitcairn Islanders,  descendants of the Mutiny on the Anson BayBounty, who arrived on June 8, 1856.  The Pitcairners brought with them cooking, music, and weaving/ plaiting, that are still practised.  They brought with them a language that is still spoken.  The Norf'k language is a wonderful mix of Tahitian and old English, and it is taught in our school.  You will see our language used throughout this site in the far right column under 'Imagine a place where ...'.

 

Sea kayaking

Our world is somewhere you can take it as easy as can be, or be as busy as you want to be.  There are over 70 ACTIVITIES like sea kayaking, diving/snorkelling, bush walking, and deep sea fishing that you can enjoy, many of them in or on the water, or in our national parks.

 

Our world is a PLACE of amazing physical beauty.  It is a place blessed with a wonderful sub-tropical climate where the 'great outdoors' is your playground.  Where 'fast food' is pulled out of the ground.  Where 40 endemic species of flora and fauna live.  Our air is amongst the cleanest on the planet.  The only impurity in our seas is a 220 year old ship wreck.    

 

Our world has an amazing PAST.  It is home to the southern hemisphere's best collection of restored convict built Georgian buildings and structures that are Launching the boat at convict-built Kingston Pierstill in community use today - living history indeed!  They house our museums, our parliament, and our public service.  The convict-built pier is still the only way to launch boats to go fishing, or bring in goods from overseas.

Imagine a place where ...

There wasn't a limit on how long you could park somewhere.

Imagine no more.

Norfolk is that place.
