As well as protecting rare native species such as the endangered green parrot and Norfolk pine, the park is a major drawcard for visitors, and makes a significant contribution to the island's tourism industry.

The Captain Cook Monument and associated walking tracks can be accessed via Duncombe Bay Road at any time. Fabulous sea and sunset views from here.

The given co-ords are at a unique National Park sign on the way to Cooks Monument. The sign features the fascinating Norfolk language - a mixture of 18th century English and ancient Tahitian.

If you don't have a digital camera post a descriptive log.
