Norfolk Island Time

Had the sea not settled down, the captain would have had no other option but to take the Norfolk's load to the nearest distant Pacific island. Norfolk has its new food supply and everyone is lucky. Northfolk is one of the most isolated islets in the whole wide globe - about 1,412 km off the east coast of Australia.

Pitcairn was a mixture of female Tahitians and men who left the Bounty with Fletcher Christian after the notorious Bounty mutiny. Norfolk Island's intriguing story has attracted tourism for centuries, but today it is also the simpler way of living, the abundant supply of green foods that grow in the countryside and woods, and the kind of enticing nature that makes this place so attractive.

Everybody says hello (you can't pass someone without giving them a'Norfolk wave') and even outsiders take the time to overhear. Food & DrinkFor early birds, the OIive Café is located in a picturesque grassed A-frame structure in the heart of the city and is open daily from 6:30am to 3:00pm to serve basic food, a great range of fine dining sanwiches and homemade sweets and cakes.

Make room (on your timetable and in your stomach) for the Hilli Goat Farms Walk for a tasty gourmet adventure on a farmyard run by three generation of an artful culinary team. Her daughter Emily guides the visitors through the goat milkers' processes and explains how she then makes tasty cheese and a care series.

Emily's mom Alice also has her local country-style potter's workshop and galleries where visitors can see her in action. It' still home to Dino, the gifted cook, and his boss, who have transformed many of the delightful rooms (with beautiful Norfolk Pine walls) into dinning and entertainment rooms with an exquisite selection of their artwork and mementos.

Hilli's is also home to one of the island's greatest attractions: A 360-degree panorama picture that tells the history of Norfolk Island's settlement. After Hilli's is Pitcairn Settler's Village, where you can do funny, instructive and really interesting trips through this pristine settler's house on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Drive Norfolk's first touring bus, a delightful A Ford style, watch a historic movie that gives you a lot of backdrop and a smithy. Strolling through the many rooms, it is as if time has turned back. One of the many beautiful things on Norfolk Island is that there are only about 500-600 visitors on the island.

Norfolk doesn't give it' s vibrant nocturnal life top of the agenda, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't get off after work because there's still a lot to do. Both he and his charming spouse own this pub/bar/restaurant and always make sure that their customers have a funny and enjoyable time. In Kingston, the city of settlers, a three-course menu in a ghost hotel heralds the beginning of the game.

Tales are told, shrub poetry is read, and visitors end up in an unbelievable backdrop of tens of thousand candles where they dine in a shed. No matter what you want to do in Norfolk, the peace and quiet and the island's nature will affect you.

You' re going to give the Norfolk wave and slip into island time. RESIDENCE: The Governor's Lodge Resort Hotel is an excellent place to spend the night, as it is only a few walking steps away from Hilli's Café, the Cyclorama, the Guava Gallery and the Pitcairn Settler Village. It is only a ten min walking distance to the city and all coaches will meet you at the front desk.
