The new Norfolk Island brochure includes an introduction from NIT Ambassador and Television Personality, Ray Martin quoted as saying “Visiting Norfolk Island may mean turning back the clock to a quieter, more relaxed era, but don’t let anyone tell you that this lovely place is strictly for retirees or your grandparents”.
