Martin Clunes is not only one of Britain’s finest acting talents, but also a keen traveller.
Since the early 2000’s, he’s documented a number of his trips around the world for television. This includes jaunts to America and Australia, in 2009 and 2018 respectively.
On his latest trip, he decided to fulfil a lifelong interest in the Pacific island which was inspired by a book given to him as a child by his father, Kon-Tiki and I.
So, where is he visiting on his Islands of the Pacific travels – and what has he said about his journey? This is what you need to know.
Where was Islands of the Pacific filmed?
Clunes told ITV his dream was to follow in the footsteps of the Kon-Tiki expedition across the Pacific.
This meant voyaging out into the largest ocean in the world and consists of tens of thousands islands within its vast 63 million square miles.
