15 Remote Islands You Can Actually Visit

"According to UNESCO, it is "the most remote inhabited island on the planet," sitting about 2,300 miles from the Chilean coast. The Indigenous population, though significantly reduced after colonization, still numbers roughly 3,000 people who carry the Rapa Nui lineage and preserve rich cultural traditions. Travelers can reach the island via various cruise itineraries or by flying into Mataveri Airport." - Stacey Leasca Stacey Leasca Stacey Leasca is an award-winning journalist and co-founder of Be a Travel Writer, an online course for the next generation of travel journalists.
