5 Minutes in... Isla Robinson Crusoe

Jul 27, 2025

Named after Daniel Defoe's character, this island in the Pacific Ocean (hundreds of miles off the coast of Chile) was once home to a real-life stranded explorer (Alexander Selkirk), who was stuck here awaiting rescue for four-and-a-half years. If you go, I hope you get better weather than I got! For the port guide, head to www.danieledwarduk.com and click on Port Guides.
