Welcome to the Official Pitcairn Immigration and Repopulation Web Site
Pitcairn Island is best known as the remote island in the South Pacific where the infamous mutineers of HMAV Bounty finally found refuge in 1790 after seizing the ship, a few days sail out of Tahiti.
Fewer people know that Pitcairn is a British Overseas Territory, one of four small, diverse and unique islands which encompass a large exclusive economic zone, pristine waters and many endemic species.
The islands are situated 1570 km west of Easter Island and 5350 km north-east of New Zealand and consist of Pitcairn (the only inhabited island), Henderson, Ducie, and Oeno. Their climates are sub-tropical and Pitcairn, in particular, has rich volcanic soil and lush vegetation.
Accessible only by sea, via a quarterly passenger/supply ship providing just three rotations for up to 12 visitor berths per voyage, the Pitcairn Islands group is probably the most remote in the world. Getting to Pitcairn is an adventure in itself and improved marketing has generated increased demand for 4, 11 and 18 day on-island stays.
Pitcairn Island is committed to maintaining a vibrant community and attracting new migrants.
