What remote island was famously used as a prison and is located off the coast of South Africa?
**Did you know?** Tristan da Cunha, often dubbed the world’s most remote inhabited archipelago, lies in the South Atlantic Ocean, over 1,500 miles from the nearest landmass.
This small volcanic island is home to just a few hundred residents, who predominantly live in the village of Edinburgh of the Seven Seas.
Accessing Tristan da Cunha is an adventure in itself, as there are no airports—visitors must endure a week-long journey by sea from South Africa.
Despite its remoteness, the island is a vibrant ecological haven, boasting unique wildlife such as the Tristan albatross and northern rockhopper penguins.
This isolation, while challenging, has allowed the community to preserve a distinctive way of life, largely untouched by the rapid changes of the modern world.
