About Robinson Crusoe Island
Robinson Crusoe Island is the main island in the remote Juan Fernández Archipelago and national park, off the Chilean coast. It's known for its dive sites and native wildlife such as firecrown hummingbirds and fur seals. On the northern side is the fishing village of San Juan Bautista. Nearby, political prisoners were once held at the Cave of the Patriots. Trails on Cerro El Yunque have island views.
