Ducie Island, Coral atoll in Pitcairn Islands.
This small atoll consists of four islets named Acadia, Pandora, Westward, and Edwards, surrounded by clear Pacific waters.
Captain Edward Edwards discovered the island in 1791 while searching for HMS Bounty mutineers and named it after Baron Francis Ducie.
The island serves as a sanctuary for Murphy's petrels, with ninety percent of their global population nesting on this remote territory.
Access to Ducie Island requires careful navigation through a narrow channel between Pandora and Westward islets to reach the inner lagoon.
The surrounding waters contain multiple species of toxic fish and sharks, making swimming and fishing activities dangerous for visitors.
