Known as the "world´s loneliest island," country-counter, philatelists and bird-watchers mark this remote South Atlantic island on their wish list. Discovered in 1506, Tristan de Cunha was annexed by Britain in 1816 and made a dependency of St. Helena Island in 1938. The island group has the only known breeding colonies of great shearwaters.
