Destination Details Stunning scenery, fascinating culture,

gourmet food and friendliest locals, Norfolk

Island is an island paradise!

Norfolk Island is located 1500km from the

Australian mainland, yet it appears almost

forgotten in time with a hidden culture and

language. Norfolk Island is just so different,

with only 2300 inhabitants on this 35km2

Island. What’s so special about Norfolk

Island? It’s distinctive character, unique,

peaceful, uncrowded, stress free, relaxed

atmosphere, surrounded by beautiful natural

scenery, sub-tropical temperatures,

fascinating history and culture.

“The Islanders” are wonderful, friendly

people, so proud of their ancestral heritage

and so willing to share what they are and

what they have achieved in their 36 years of

self-government.

A holiday on this South Pacific Island is a

wonderful experience. The combination and

selection of activities, attractions, conducted

tours and evening meal venues chosen for

inclusion in your Norfolk Island visit, adds

greatly to the enjoyment and value of your

holiday by leaving you with no hidden cost

concerns. The King’s knowledge and

previous experiences on Norfolk Island is our

guarantee that your holiday will be a special

one! The Kings choose to work with and use

the professional services of Norfolk Island

Travel Centre and many locals we have built

a relationship with.
