Pitcairn Island

About Pitcairn Island

Local life on Pitcairn revolves around community and tradition, and visitors are often welcomed into homes to sample homemade treats like banana bread or fresh coconut. The island’s currency is the New Zealand dollar, but bartering with goods like chocolate or coffee is not uncommon. Handicrafts, such as intricately carved wooden models of the Bounty or woven baskets made from local pandanus leaves, make for unique souvenirs. With no cars and only a handful of roads, getting around is on foot or by quad bike, and the island’s peaceful, unhurried pace is a rare treat in today’s fast-moving world.
