St Helena: a remote volcanic island | Move now!
#StHelena #Summer2019 #TakeMeTo
St. Helena island, part of the British Overseas Territory also encompassing Ascension and Tristan da Cunha islands, is a remote volcanic outpost in the South Atlantic Ocean. It's famous as the place of Napoleon Bonaparte's exile and death, as commemorated by a now-empty tomb. Climbing destinations include the 699 steps of Jacob's Ladder and Diana's Peak, sheltering endemic plant and animal life.
When to visit:
Travellers often visit Jan–Mar, the warmest part of the year. The rest of the year is also generally warm, although nights can be cool Jun–Aug, especially inland. Rainy season is Apr–May and Jul–Sep. There are civic and patriotic celebrations on St. Helena Day (May 21), which commemorate the founding of the island community in 1502.
Things to do:
1. Longwood House is a mansion in St. Helena and the final residence of Napoleon Bonaparte, during his exile on the island of Saint Helena, from 10 December 1815 until his death on 5 May 1821. It lies on a windswept plain some 6 km from Jamestown.
2. Saint Helena is an island in the South Atlantic Ocean, about midway between South America and Africa. St Helena has a land area of 122 square kilometres and is part of the territory of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha which includes Ascension Island and the island group of Tristan da Cunha.
3. Jacob's Ladder is a Grade I-listed staircase leading from Jamestown, Saint Helena, up the side of Ladder Hill to Ladder Hill Fort. The ladder is all that remains of an cable railway which was built there in the early 1800s.
4. Diana's Peak is the highest point, at 818 metres, on the island of Saint Helena, a British overseas territory in the South Atlantic Ocean. It is of volcanic origin. Mountain and its surroundings with a total area of 81 ha were proclaimed a national park in March 1996, the first on the island.
5. Plantation House is the official residence of the Governor of Saint Helena. It is located 3.6 km to the south of the capital, Jamestown, on the island of Saint Helena.
6. The Museum of Saint Helena is a museum on the island of Saint Helena, a British Overseas Territory in the south Atlantic Ocean. The museum is managed by the Saint Helena Heritage Society.

Saint Helena is a tropical island of volcanic origin in the South Atlantic Ocean, 4000 km east of Rio de Janeiro. It is part of the British Overseas Territory of St Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, which also includes Ascension Island and the islands of Tristan da Cunha. Saint Helena measures about 16 by 8 kilometres (10 by 5 mi) and has a population of 4,255 (2008 census). It was named after Saint Helena of Constantinople.
The island was uninhabited when discovered by the Portuguese in 1502. One of the most remote islands in the world, it was for centuries an important stopover for ships sailing to Europe from Asia and South Africa. Napoleon was imprisoned there in exile by the British, as were Dinuzulu kaCetshwayo (for leading a Zulu army against British rule) and more than 5,000 Boers taken prisoner during the Second Boer War.
Between 1791 and 1833, Saint Helena became the site of a series of experiments in conservation, reforestation, and attempts to boost rainfall artificially. This environmental intervention was closely linked to the conceptualization of the processes of environmental change and helped establish the roots of environmentalism.
Saint Helena is Britain's second oldest remaining British Overseas Territory, after Bermuda.

Landscape Photography of St Helena Island - Chasing The Light
As photographers on St Helena one of our biggest challenges is capturing good quality, landscape photographs of St Helena. The island is very small yet it boasts amazing, mountainous scenery. But these very same features also work against us, generating cloudy conditions which tend to obscure the morning and evening golden hour.
This video shows off some of the landscape photographs of St Helena we’ve been able to capture, but also the challenges of contending with misty weather.

St Helena Airport- the RMS Lives!
Following the opening of St Helena Airport the ship RMS St Helena was taken out of service. I was sad at the prospect that the proud vessel would simply be broken up for scrap, but I'm very happy to say that is not the case.
See here for background:

Saint Helena Airport
Saint Helena Airport is an airport under construction since early 2012 in the British Overseas Territory of Saint Helena, a remote island in the south Atlantic Ocean. Scheduled air services from Johannesburg are scheduled to commence in late February 2016. After the airport opens, the RMS St Helena, the only transport that regularly serves the island, is due to retire.
