Highlights

Our Island Culture Tour showcases our rich and diverse cultural heritage, from our Polynesian and Tahitian foremothers, our Bounty Mutineer forefathers through to early influences of religion, and seafaring settlers joining our community including American Indians, African Americans, Irish, English, Sami and New Zealand Māori. Be immersed in the rich heritage and deep gratitude we hold for our forebears as you explore Norfolk Island’s living culture. Discover artefacts passed down through generations and hear stories of our local language, traditional fishing and historical whaling practices, weaving, cooking, and service during times of conflict all of which have shaped who we are as a community today. This experience showcases how Islanders have evolved through the ages, living sustainably on the land and sea, guided by the rhythms of the seasons. You'll also have the chance to sample traditional seasonal dishes and try your hand at weaving, all in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
