East Polynesians were the first to settle on the islandaround the 14th Century, however they had left by 1774 when Captain James Cook first sighted the island. Two years later the American Revolution began and Britain had to find new territories for the deportation of convicts. Drawing on Cook’s discoveries, Australia and Norfolk Island were selected and the First Fleet was sent off to them in 1787. Convicts and free settlers lived on the island until it was abandoned in 1814. The Second Penal Settlement established itself from 1825 – 1855 and Norfolk Island was once again transformed into a prison isle. Meanwhile, events were unfolding eastward in the Pacific which would eventually link to this small isle. In 1788 HMAV Bounty left England on a mission to gather breadfruit trees from Tahiti for the West Indies planters. A startling turn of events including love affairs with Tahitian women and a mutiny on The Bounty saw Fletcher Christian and his crew create a new life for themselves on Pitcairn Island with Tahitian women and men. They burnt the Bounty and remained undetected until an American whaling ship discovered the hideaway in 1808. In 1854 Queen Victoria gave approval for Pitcairn Islanders to move to Norfolk Island. In June 1856 a community of 194 arrived on Norfolk Island and the descendants of those settlers still inhabit this beautiful idyllic retreat today. The Norfolk Experience There are so many activities on Norfolk Island to keep you entertained. There are several restaurants and eateries on the Island, ranging from a la carte and family friendly restaurants to club bistros and takeaways. Cafes offer hearty breakfasts and evening meals also. The paddock to plate approach to Norfolk Island dining means food tastes just as it should, full of flavour, grown in its natural season and rich with all the right nutrients. You can hire a car and cruise along the winding roads or for the more active, jump on a mountain bike and enjoy an easy ride with stunning scenery. Lose yourself in the wild mountain sides that form Norfolk Island National Park. Wander the lush walking tracks and you’ll encounter giant vines, tree ferns, delicate flowers and many rare rainforest species. World Heritage listed Kingston and Arthur’s Vale Historic Area is an attraction in itself. There you will find fascinating places including: the Cemetery (convict headstones provide detailed evidence of a horrific era) and Government House. Hire a rod and casually cast your line from one of the two piers. Join a charter fishing trip with a local expert and find yourself reeling in succulent Sweet Lip, Kingfish and Wahoo – just to name a few. To complete your day, cook your catch on an open BBQ. 4 www.omnicheholidays.com Omniche Holidays Norfolk Island CAPT.
