Christmas Island

Overview

Remote, rugged, and rich in natural wonder — Christmas Island is one of Australia’s most unique and untouched destinations. Located in the Indian Ocean, this island is often called the “Galápagos of the Indian Ocean” for its dramatic landscapes, rare wildlife, and ecological diversity.

With towering rainforests, hidden waterfalls, coral reefs, and blowholes along the jagged coastline, Christmas Island is a nature-lover’s dream. It’s best known for its world-famous red crab migration, where millions of crabs blanket the island during the breeding season — a natural spectacle like no other. Whether you’re diving, hiking, birdwatching, or simply disconnecting from the world, Christmas Island offers adventure in its rawest, most beautiful form.
