| Emily Bay |
 |
| Emily Bay is the most popular beach on Norfolk Island. It is located in Kingston, near the old convict ruins, and is protected by a reef, so the swimming is safe, and the water is nice and calm - not to mention crystal clear! There is a pontoon in the middle of Emily Bay for relaxing on or diving off. Lots of people snorkel in Emily Bay to enjoy the many and colourful fish and the beautiful reef. Glass Bottom Boat tours operate in Emily Bay if you want to avoid getting wet. |
| Old Convict Ruins |
 |
| Norfolk Island was once a penal colony, and the old convict ruins remain today to remind visitors of Norfolk Island's colourful past. Visitors can stroll through the ruins in Kingston (and elsewhere on the Island) or take a tour by day or night to discover what the building were used for and what Peter Clarke meant when he chose the title "Hell and Paradise" for his thrilling account of Norfolk Island's history. |
| Slaughter Bay |
 |
| Despite its ominous sounding name, Slaughter Bay is a tranquil beach adjoining Emily Bay, and protected by a reef. Slaughter Bay is excellent for snorkelling. At low tide, the reef is exposed, and only a short distance from the shore. The snorkelling is best at this time. Ths island in the background is Phillip Island, which you can get to by boat (tours are available). It makes for a great, and physical day out. |
