Description: Every year on Australia's Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean, early one very special morning something unbelievable happens that even Sir David Attenborough ranks as one of his top 10 natural wonders in the world - millions of large red land cabs congregate on the shore and at the turn of the tide, they all rush in together to cast their billions of eggs into the sea, turning the ocean black! Stay at SwellLodge.com to experience this amazing spectacle, or just for a wonderful luxury eco-holiday any time of year! Christmas island is full of amazing rare and endemic birds, crabs, landscapes and world-class diving, snorkelling and freediving in crystal clear warm waters with resident dolphins and even whale sharks in the right season!
