Where do you go to get away from it all? When the stress of everyday life pushes you to search for the most remote point on Earth, you might be surprised to learn there are actually a few to choose from.

But if you have decent sea legs, nothing beats the furthest point from land, also known as the 'oceanic pole of inaccessibility.' It has been nicknamed Point Nemo. The The name means 'no-one' in Latin, which is fitting for a place so rarely visited by people.
