Apresentação geral
Tristão da Cunha
The world's most isolated permanent community lives at the foot of an active volcano, in the heart of the South Atlantic.
Edinburgh-des-Sept-Mers, Queen Mary's Peak and Nightingale Island give the most telling landmarks of Tristan da Cunha. Together, they form a destination where island landscapes, coastline, volcanic landscapes and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
Ver tudo
For a stay of 2 to 6 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: long and irregular sea crossing and necessary prior authorisation. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Place indismissible
Édimbourg-des-Sept-Mers
Edinburgh-des-Sept-Mers brings together the houses, port, administration and potato fields of Tristan da Cunha on a thin plain at the foot of the volcano. The isolation is read everywhere: in the dependency on ships, in the scale of the village and in the permanent proximity between houses, pastures and ocean.
Nature and panorama
Queen Mary's Peak
Queen Marys Peak dominates Tristan da Cunha With its volcanic cone often hanging from the clouds. Ascension comes from a real company, reserved for hard walkers with guide and stable weather; from the heights, the summital crater and the ocean all around give the measure of the island's isolation.
Nature and landscape
Nightingale Island
Nightingale Island is uninhabited, but its cliffs and slopes are rustling with colonies of seabirds, including several species related to the Tristan archipelago. Approaches are rare and dependent on the sea; the interest of the place lies mainly in the careful observation of a very little modified natural sanctuary.
