About Norfolk Island
Norfolk Island is a small green island in the South Pacific, with tall pines, a World Heritage convict settlement and descendants of the Bounty mutineers.
Norfolk Island lies in the South Pacific about 1,400 kilometres east of the Australian mainland, between New Zealand and New Caledonia, and is an Australian territory. It is only eight kilometres long, a plateau of pasture and farmland ringed by cliffs and lined with the tall Norfolk Island pines that gave the tree its name. Kingston, on the south coast, holds the Georgian buildings and ruins of two convict settlements, part of the Australian Convict Sites World Heritage listing.
