Robinson Crusoe Island

Robinson Crusoe Island, Juan Fernández, Chile Fri 07 Feb 2025

Robinson Crusoe Island

Originally named Juan Fernandez Island after the Portuguese sailor who discovered it in 1575, the island remained largely unknown until 1708 when Scottish sailor Alexander Selkirk was rescued after being marooned for over four years. This experience then became the inspiration for Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe. Due to the literary association the Chilean Government decided to rename the Island in 1966 to Robinson Crusoe Island. Today this volcanic island of mountainous landscape is a fascinating place of wild and unspoilt beauty. Declared a World Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1977, the island is home to some unique species including the Juan Fernandez Firecrown Hummingbird, the Fur Seal and the Magellanic Penguin.

Explore the Impressive Moai Statues on Easter Island

Just south of the Tropic of Capricorn, Easter Island, or Rapa Nui, lies 3,790 kilometres to the west of Chile. Extraordinarily remote, this island was first inhabited by Polynesians who are believed to have arrived by sea about 1,200 years ago. The island is best known as the site of more than 600 stone statues, or Moai, which stand up to nine metres in height. The statues were carved in the spectacular Rano Raraku quarry and were then believed to have been transported on wooden rollers to their destinations. Little is known about these fascinating statues, and during your full day in port, you can begin to uncover the legends that surround Easter Island.
