I've just uploaded my
Travel Guide to the Pitcairn Islands which includes most of the Pitcairn Islands chapter from the 8th edition of
Moon Handbooks South Pacific. This is the third chapter from my book to go online, after
Tokelau and
Niue. We're currently formating a fourth chapter and hope to have it online soon. My
Travel Guide to the Pitcairn Islands outlines the geography, history, economy, and population of Pitcairn. There's practical information on accommodations, money, visas, and getting there. You'll find a link under Pitcairn Tours to the regular boat tours from Mangareva, French Polynesia. Detailed maps of Pitcairn, Oeno, and Henderson are provided, and I've thrown in a map and brief description of Norfolk Island between Australia and New Zealand where many Pitcairn descendants presently live. As always, I invite you to compare my Pitcairns Islands guide to the scanty
Introducing Pitcairn Island site provided by Lonely Planet. Hopefully the competition will inspire the folks at LP to do a better job.
