Christmas Island History, Travel and Tourism. Environmental Information, A Book on Christmas Island, Even though 63 per cent of Christmas Island's 135 square kilometres is protected as a National Park most people only know Christmas Island as a place for people seeking asylum. Few people know it as a place of natural beauty, where a unique ecosystem of plants and animals has developed over millions of years. Today Christmas Island has a laid back atmosphere that has come from many cultures blending together harmoniously. Since its discovery the island has had an interesting history. The first written record of the existence of the Island was made in 1615. Captain William Mynors of the Royal Mary passed the Island and named it on Christmas day 25 December 1643.

The History of Christmas Island. For Travel and Tourism. For centuries, Christmas Island's isolation and rugged coasts provided natural barriers to settlement. British and Dutch navigators first included the island on their charts from the early seventeenth century, and Captain William Mynors of the East India Ship Company vessel, the Royal Mary, named the island when he arrived on Christmas Day, 25th December, 1643. He was unable to land, however, and it was not until 1688, when the English buccaneering ship Cygnet arrived under Captain Swan, that the first recorded landing took place. In his book "New Voyage Round the World" (1699), Dampier, who was second mate or master's mate, recounted how crewmen landed on the west coast (probably at The Dales) and brought back on board large Robber Crabs (Birgus latro) to eat and wood for a pump. This was the first recorded landing on Christmas Island.

Christmas Island is an Australian external territory located in the Indian Ocean, approximately 360 kilometers south of Java and 2,600 kilometers northwest of Perth. It is only 135 square kilometers in size, making it one of the smallest territories in Australia. The island is famous worldwide for its spectacular annual red crab migration where millions of red crabs march from the forest to the sea to spawn. The island was discovered by the British in 1643 and named after the day of its discovery, which was Christmas Day. In 1958, the island was transferred to Australia, and today it is an Australian territory with a mixed population of mainly Chinese, Australian, and Malay. The island is known for its rich natural diversity and cultural heritage. It is home to an incredible array of flora and fauna, including over a hundred bird species, several endangered species such as the Golden Bosun (an endemic bird), and several types of crabs unique to the island. The island's distinct culture is a blend of Asian and Australian influences, with its primary language being English, but dialects such as Chinese Malay and Indian dialects are also spoken. Visitors to Christmas Island have the opportunity to experience its unique culture and outstanding natural beauty, making it an increasingly popular tourist destination.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
