Norfolk-island----By--Sveta-Panch
Where the Ocean has always ruled

Located at 28 degress south latitude, only 1.5 hour's flight north from Auckland new Zealand, Norfolk enjoys a sub tropical climate. In summer the average temperature is 70 F; in "winter" it still averages 50 F. In this mild rather than tropical climate, instead of coconut palms lining the island's shores, lines of elegantly upright Norfolk pines guard the coasts. There are several spectacular headlands, such as Rocky Point and Point Hunter, which offer panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, and golden beaches overlooked by the ubiquitous Norfolk pines.

Norfolk's waters are rich in fish. Fishing trips can be taken from Kingston Pier or Cascade Pier, the local specialty being Trumpeter, Cod, Snapper, Kingfish, trevally and Groper. All gear is supplied if guests have not bought their own with them to the island.
