Remote Island Vacations

by erin 12. September 2009 10:25
For many of us, vacations are city breaks, country retreats, or resort getaways. But have you ever imagined a vacation “Castaway” style?

We have found some remote islands far away from the civilization. It’s a perfect location to spend some time with your beloved enjoying the white beaches, tropical palms and miles of shimmering water.

Tristan da Cunha

 

Tristan  

Tristan da Cunha is a remote volcanic group of islands in the South Atlantic Ocean. The territory consists of the main island Tristan da Cunha, the uninhabited Nightingale Islands and the wildlife reserves of Inaccessible Island and Gough Island. The lonely nature of the British territory attracts tourists from around the world despite of the fact that you need permission from the Tristan government to enter. Accessible only by boat from Cape Town, Tristan da Cunha’s remoteness is ironically, the main reason for its popularity.

Kiribati

 

Kiribati

Kiribati, officially the Republic of Kiribati, is an island nation located in the central tropical Pacific Ocean. It is composed of 32 atolls and one raised coral island. Kiribati's Bonriki International Airport is the hub of the national airline. Lying 1,650 miles southwest of Hawaii, the archipelago comprises 21 inhabited islands and 13 more that lie desolate. The remote island is home to the world’s largest protected marine reserve.


Attu Island

Attu is the westernmost and largest island in the Near Islands group of the Aleutian Islands of Alaska, making it the westernmost point of land relative to Alaska and the United States.
The island boasts of a difficult to maneuver landscape of volcanoes and valleys and a volatile climate of year-round.
While this island may not be picked up as a typical week long vacation, it is aperfect stop-over while you are on a cruise or looking for a quick escape for a short time.

Pitcairn Islands

 

Pitcairn

The Pitcairn Islands, officially named the Pitcairn, Henderson, Ducie and Oeno Islands, are a group of four volcanic islands in the southern Pacific Ocean. The islands are a British overseas territory the last remaining in the Pacific. The islands are best known as home of the descendants of the Bounty mutineers and the Tahitians who accompanied them. With awesome cliffs and a rugged, untouched coastline, it’s the type of place you can imagine being shipwrecked on and spending your entire life time over there.
