Western settlement islands Travel Guide

Region

A chain of privately run settlement islands west of the main islands offers comfortable lodge bases and excellent self-guided walking. Wide beaches, wetlands and sheltered coves make wildlife viewing easy, often with surprisingly tame birds near the tracks. Flights are limited and weather prone to disruption, so align island-hopping with the weekly air schedule.
