The 5 Best Things to do for Honeymoon in Norfolk Island, Australia
At first glance, it’s hard to believe that vibrant Norfolk Island could have a dark past. Yet during the 19th century, the now-peaceful Australian retreat was a convict colony, home to criminals who’d been banished into exile. Today, the archaeological remains of the penal colony have UNESCO World Heritage status and are revered for their historical significance. You can visit the settlement’s remains, an eerie yet beautiful collection that includes a jail, a cemetery, lumbar yard and salt house.

Before I visited this attraction, I did wonder if the $15 admission fee was too high for what I expected. It exceeded all my expectations. Two local artists spent 2 years creating this enormous panoramic painting with incredible realism and historical artwork. The sound effects and music enhance the experience. You feel as if you are present in Norfolk's history. A 3D effect and storyboards around it - make it feel very real. A "Not To Be Missed" attraction.

Magnificent scenery in a well kept and maintained area. This area has toilets, seats, tables and a barbecue area. A short walk to the Captain Cook landing monument and a further walk to a viewing platform providing excellent views of the surrounding cliffs and small islands/rocky outcrops. Different species of native birds were interesting to watch and kept us engaged for some time. You could also explore the cliff top walking tracks but would need a reasonable level of agility and fitness, however a visit to this attraction is a must do when on Norfolk Island.

Ten minutes drive from Burnt Pine, you can park your car half way up the mountain and walk the rest of the way or drive to the top where you will be greeted with stunning views. From there you can walk the further 500m to Mount Bates which is sightly higher than Mount Pitt.
