Getting here to St Helena
One might ask…. how do I get to the Island of St Helena?
Getting to St Helena is not easy, and it is not a straight forward process, unlike a normal procedure, when visiting other places.
The only regular means of travel to the Island is on the Royal mail ship- the RMS St Helena. RMS St Helena The Island's life line
The RMS as it is commonly known sails to and from Cape Town, Ascension Island and twice annually from the UK.
During the Island’s summer months, there are often visits from scheduled Cruise ships.
