Pitcairn Islands is a group of four volcanic islands located in the South Pacific Ocean. The islands are a British Overseas Territory and are one of the most remote inhabited places on Earth, with a population of just over 50 people.

The largest island in the group, Pitcairn, is where the majority of the population resides. The other islands in the group are Henderson, Ducie, and Oeno. Henderson Island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its unique ecology and lack of human habitation.

The Pitcairn Islands were first settled by Polynesians around the 11th century, and later became a British colony in 1838. The islands are known for their connection to the HMS Bounty mutineers, who arrived on Pitcairn Island in 1790 and formed a community with the native Polynesians. Today, many of the island's residents are descendants of these mutineers.

The economy of the Pitcairn Islands is heavily dependent on tourism, as well as the sale of collectibles such as postage stamps and coins. The islands are also known for their unique handicrafts, such as woven baskets and wood carvings.

Due to their isolation, the Pitcairn Islands have a unique ecology, with many endemic species of plants and animals. The islands are home to a number of endangered species, including the Henderson petrel and the Pitcairn warbler.

The Pitcairn Islands have limited infrastructure, with no airport, no natural harbor, and no regular ferry service. Visitors to the islands must arrive by boat, and must obtain a permit from the Pitcairn Island Council before they are allowed to land.
