Edinburgh Of The Seven Seas, Settlement Of Edinburgh

Edinburgh of the Seven Seas, nestled on the island of Tristan da Cunha, is the only settlement in this remote part of the South Atlantic Ocean.  It's also known locally as "The Settlement" or "The Village." Founded in 1816, it served as a British military garrison during Napoleon's exile on Saint Helena. 

Today, Edinburgh of the Seven Seas offers a glimpse into a unique island life. Prince Philip Hall serves as the village's social hub, and The Albatross Bar is a great place to meet the friendly locals.  The post office allows you to send postcards with unique Tristan da Cunha stamps, and the Handicrafts and Souvenir Shop offers mementos of your visit. While nightlife options are limited, the charm of this remote community lies in its peaceful atmosphere and genuine hospitality.
