Did you know?
And here are a few things you may not have know about Norfolk:
- The Norfolk Island phone book has a listing of people by their nicknames, see below.
- It has its own language – Norf’k. Unique phrases include Wataweih (Hello), Watawieh Yorlye? (how are you?) and Kushu (good).
- Cows have right or way on the Island, not cars. So mooove over Mal.
- Fishing is not called fishing. It’s called catching, because there are so many fish, it’s easy.
- Bounty Day celebrates the birth of the current unique Norfolk culture and is the island’s most important historical event – the infamous mutiny against Lieutenant Bligh on the Royal Navy vessel HMAV Bounty.
- Thanks to strict customs laws, the island has some unique flora and fauna. There are over 40 unique plant species and no snakes!
- Nearly all locals produce their own fresh produce on Norfolk so you are bound to get a good meal or two.
