- Point Nemo (and related points) is also interesting:
> […] The oceanic pole of inaccessibility, also known as Point Nemo, is located at roughly 48°52.6′S 123°23.6′W[21] and is the place in the ocean that is farthest from land. It represents the solution to the "longest swim" problem.[22] […]

- Thanks!
An interesting article. It mentions that "breeding dogs are no longer allowed on the island". I presume this is to avoid a feral population of dogs becoming established. However, I'm unaware that dogs pose particular threats to native wildlife, unlike cats.

- Gaah! Whose bright idea was it to take an article and turn it into a scrolling video game? An interesting writeup, but what an insanely annoying way to present it.
- I've been fascinated by this island for years.
- Now that St. Helena has an airport and all, it’s good to know that even more remote alternatives exist.
- Honestly looks a lot more interesting and alive than St Helena
