The Most Remote Places on Earth Few Will Ever See

Some places on Earth are so remote that only a handful of people have ever laid eyes on them. Take Bouvet Island, a frozen speck in the South Atlantic Ocean, surrounded by icy waters and far from any other land. Then there’s Ittoqqortoormiit in Greenland, where only a few hundred people live among polar bears and glaciers—it’s so isolated, supplies come by boat just once a year! Tristan da Cunha, the world’s most remote inhabited island, is over 1,500 miles from the nearest continent, with just 250 residents who rely on their own farming and fishing to survive.
