Planet Earth is huge and filled with water and land all around us, but it also has many places far away. With that, some of these places are called inaccessibility poles, which are considered the furthest locations from everything.

Difficult access points can be located not only in the oceans, but also on land, on the continent. This definition of inaccessibility pole is seen as a point located at a very great distance from the nearest coastline. So, see below a list of some of the most distant places on planet Earth.
This island is located 830 km east of Greenland and about 950 km north of the European coast. With that, it is considered as part of the archipelago of Svalbard, making it the largest island in Norway.
The point of Tristan da Cunha is an island that is part of an archipelago in the south of England and is located 2,100 km south of Saint Helena (part of the continent closest to it).
If we are going to talk about poles of inaccessibility, we must certainly include Point Nemo, as this is the farthest place from any strip of coastline or piece of continent. This point is located more than 2,866 km from a group of islands, which are also far away.
This location is also one of the furthest out there. Easter Island lies over 2,800 km northeast of Point Nemo, with a small cluster of small islands nearby. In addition, it is a point known for the large stone statues that exist in the region.
As much as it is a pole of inaccessibility, this region has a population, but there is no exact knowledge of when there was the first occupation. Finally, historians believe it may have been around 300 to 400 AD. W.
