Lord Howe Island Museum and Visitor Centre

A good place to learn about the island is the Museum and Visitors Information Centre.

The new centre opened in 2001. It now houses the exhibits and museum artefacts of the Lord Howe Island Historical Society, which was formed by residents in the 1970s.

Two of the island's history and environmental experts, Ian Hutton and Chris Murray, conduct regular audio-visual presentations.

Brush up on your history and learn about the fantastic flora, fauna and marine life. You can also book tours at the centre. Entry is free!
