Travel guide

Tuvalu is a group of nine low-lying islands and atolls in the South Pacific that form the fourth smallest country in the world. It is also one of the most isolated and remote independent countries in the world. Since its highest point is 3 metres above sea level, some studies predict that the majority of the land will be regularly inundated by the sea by the end of this century due to climate change. While the nation makes preparations for its possible demise, it still welcomes tourists to its beautiful beaches.

About Falkland Islands

The Falkland Islands, commonly referred to as the Falklands, is an archipelago in the South Atlantic Ocean on the Patagonian Shelf. The principal islands are about 300 mi (500 km) east of South America's southern Patagonian coast and 752 mi (1,210 km) from Cape Dubouzet at the northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula, at a latitude of about 52°S. The archipelago, with an area of 4,700 sq mi (12,000 km2), comprises East Falkland, West Falkland, and 776 smaller islands. As a British Overseas Territory, the Falklands have internal self-governance, while the United Kingdom takes responsibility for their defence and foreign affairs.
