Christmas Island is in reality a small, non self-governing Territory of Australia which is located on the Indian Ocean.Situated 2,360 km northwest of Perth in Western Australia and 500 km south of Jakarta in Indonesia,it houses approximately 1,600 residents who predominantly inhabit the towns on the northern tip of the island namely Flying Fish Cove, Drumsite, Silver City, Poon Saan and Silver City.
For centuries, Christmas Island's isolation and rugged coasts served as natural barriers to human settlement and this proved as a boon in disguise as this exclusiveness solely contributed to the flowering of the innumerable species of flora and fauna. Expansive stretches of untouched rainforests, enchanting spaces of the National Park filled with exotic flora and fauna to feast one’s eyes upon, the hip tropical climate moderated by trade winds and the undulating elevations ranging from the sea-level to the1,184 feet rise at the Murray Hill have hardly fail to enthrall.
This Island which is basically a flat summit of a submarine mountain is an ideal outing venue for a family during the winter months as the refreshing climate can lend you a welcome respite from the mundane, routine exhistance while your kids can have a glimpse of the rare species of flora and fauna that happens to be the island’s speciality.
