See Christmas Island Red Crab Migration
The annual Red Crab Migration on Christmas Island sees upwards of 100 million of these unique land crabs making a formidable trip from their inland habitat to the sea in order to procreate. Their annual trek to the sea begins 9 – 18 days before the animals spawn and usually occurs around Christmas each year but can be as early as October, depending on the phases of the moon and weather.
Christmas Island is accessible by air from Perth on a regular basis and also has one flight each week scheduled from Malaysia. The harbor at Flying Fish Cove welcomes visiting yachts with deep water mooring available. A number of cruise ships call at Christmas Island. Accommodations ranging from boutique luxury hotels to lodge style facilities are available in the inhabited areas of the island. Christmas Island offers scenic beaches, opportunities for snorkeling and SCUBA diving, rainforests, nature treks, bird watching, fishing, golf and car and scooter rentals.
Your dream of witnessing one of the wonders of the natural world may be realized by adding a trip to Christmas Island to experience the Red Crab Migration to your list. Don’t let the opportunity to observe this marvel of nature pass you by. Start working on the best way to make this fantasy a reality.
