Christmas Island Shore

Christmas Island rises from the Indian Ocean south of Java. In 1643 Captain William Mynors named it after sighting it on Christmas Day. The first recorded landing followed in 1688, when men from the English ship Cygnet went ashore; William Dampier recorded the large robber crabs they brought back to eat.
