Explorer Holidays - Christmas Island Christmas Island was once an erupting volcano below the sea floor. After millions of years it has emerged on the edge of the Java trench as a constant reminder to it’s past. With volcanic like rock surrounding its coastal edges and cliff faces, the difference from its partner Cocos Keeling Islands (900km to the west), is astonishing! |

Lonely
Planet - Kiribati - Including Kiritimati (Christmas Island)
Kiribati is more a sprinkling of far-flung coral atolls than dry land, more
deep blue ocean than sandy beach, more coconut trees than people, more Christian
church than ancient island beliefs. Kiribati (pronounced kee-ree-bus ) is
far away, hard to get to, untouristed and deeply religious.
