Ok I am a Freshman In High school and I'm doing a report on Christmas Island. So far I have looked on 50 web sites and haven't found what I need. I need to know what kind of tourist activities there are on Christmas Island and how much they cost. If you could let me know asap I would really apriciate it!

I think I am about one of the only people on this site to have actually gone to Christmas Island.

It is a very small island, part of Australia, but closer to Indonesia than to Australia. There is about 10 shops in total on the island, including 3 pubs.

The biggest tourist attraction would have to be the annual red crab migration to the sea. During November thru to January, there are millions of red crabs that come out of the forest, and into the sea. Alot die on the way, either by traffic, or the heat.

Other than that, there really isnt alot to do there besides scuba diving.

Hope this has helped a little

I do have a CI page done if you wanted to check it out
