Remote Destinations That Make You Feel Like the Last Person on Earth

5. Tristan da Cunha, South Atlantic – The Most Remote Human Settlement on Earth

If you want to go somewhere truly off the map, Tristan da Cunha is the most isolated inhabited island on Earth, located over 1,500 miles from the nearest human settlement in the South Atlantic. The only way to get there? A six-day boat trip from South Africa. This volcanic island is home to just 250 hardy residents, who live in the island’s single village, Edinburgh of the Seven Seas. With towering cliffs, wild grasslands, and no modern distractions, life here remains untouched by the outside world. If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to live completely removed from civilization, this is your answer.
