Pitcairn Island Expedition

Lynn Danaher shares this invitation with you…

Due to our long-standing friendships with some of the residents, we have been invited by the Pitcairn islanders themselves to spend a month on Pitcairn exploring petroglyph sites and conducting forensic archaeology. 

We will be the first to test for DNA at a historical burial site in Adamstown, of some of the original mutineers.  We anticipate 2 teams of 2 weeks each, max 6 participants per team, plus guides, researcher and forensic anthropologist.

This is a true remote expedition into a rugged difficult place with limited amenities.  It involves flying to Mangareva from Tahiti and taking a small ship to Pitcairn via a 32-hour passage embarking via a original style long boat thru surf. 

Must be fit and have a positive attitude for adventure.  This an Expedition not a Tour!

All expenses are covered from Tahiti; hotel, airfare to Mangareva, ship transport to and from Pitcairn, all food, lodging & transport on the island, plus, all necessary tools and professional guides.

If interested, please contact Lynn for further information and an application to join this unique expedition.
