Christmas Island National Park makes up the majority of the Australian external territory of Christmas Island. It is a place with lush jungles, a wide variety of fauna, and stunning beaches. According to Parks Australia, the island was formally named by Capt. William Mynors of the British East India Company in 1643 when it was sighted on Christmas Day, giving the destination its unusual moniker.
There are many of things to do on Christmas Island National Park, but the yearly red crab migration is a well-known sight that visitors frequently hope to witness.
According to Parks Australia, millions of red crabs migrate from the forest to the ocean each year to breed.
The report claims that this migration takes place following the wet season’s first rainfall. Although it usually occurs in October or November, it may occur as late as December or January.
Parks Australia warns that last-minute road closures are likely to happen if you travel to Christmas Island during the busiest migratory period.
