The story follows the adventures of three boys marooned on a South Pacific island, narrated by 15-year-old Ralph Rover. He, along with 18-year-old Jack Martin and 13-year-old Peterkin Gay, are the only survivors of a shipwreck on a large, uninhabited Polynesian island. Initially, the boys face challenges in securing food, water, clothing, and shelter, relying solely on their resourcefulness. As they adapt, they encounter new obstacles, including conflicts with pirates, skirmishes with native Polynesians, and the influence of Christian missionaries seeking to convert them. In the sequel, set in "darkest Africa," Ralph, Peterkin, and Jack embark on further adventures. After their time in the South Sea Islands, the boys part ways for six years. Ralph, now living off his father's inheritance on England's west coast as a naturalist, is surprised by a visit from Peterkin, who has changed significantly. Peterkin, having hunted every animal on Earth except for the gorilla, entices Ralph into a new adventure. After receiving a letter from Peterkin, Jack reunites with them, and together they set off for Africa, ready for new challenges and discoveries.
