Tristan da Cunha is the main island of an archipelago sharing its name, recognized as the most remote inhabited island group in the world. The closest neighboring landmass is the island of St. Helena over 1,500 miles away. For those fortunate visitors able to land on Tristan da Cunha in favorable weather, local villagers might tell how the island's population was evacuated during a 1961 lava flow.
