Christmas Island

Comprised of numerous freshwater streams running roughly parallel to each other. The streams originate from underground caves and eventually flow into the ocean. The streams have worn out gullies between the cliff walls of the coast, and have created unusually step-like formations (terraces). There is a waterfall above the terrace formations, which many visitors are fond of taking showers under.
The Dales are in a lush tropical rainforest known for its unique fauna, including the blue crab and robber crab, and flora including giant buttrest root trees. The Dales area has signage and raised walkways/steps installed by the national parks department for visitors.

An isolated beach, 1-hour drive by 4WD over rocky step tracks and then another 45-minute trek on foot downhill. A white sandy beach sheltered and ringed by black basalt outcrops 5 metres from the shoreline. The rear of the beach is lined with overhanging coconut trees, and there is a clear stream flowing through the middle of the beach from the cliffs above. Although it may be somewhat difficult to access, it is well worth the trip. The beach is also a fairly scenic beach and favourite camping site for locals and visitors alike, due to the availability of drinkable freshwater from the stream and "exotic secluded beach paradise" ambiance.
Dolly Beach is also a favourite nesting location for endangered sea turtles. Most nights one or more turtles make their way up onto the beach from the sea, and lay their eggs into holes dug by the turtles themselves. After laying the eggs, the turtle refills the hole with sand and makes her way back to the sea. Witnessing this event is magically and memorable. If a turtle if startled prior to laying her eggs, she will return to the sea. Therefore, do not shine any torch light in their eyes or make loud noise. Disturbing the turtles or poaching the eggs is illegal.

A geological feature located along the steep limestone cliffs along the southern coastline of the park, the Blowholes are holes in the ground where air and seawater are blown out due to waves crashing into caves formed along the bottom of the cliffs. Depending on wave conditions, the water and trapped air in the caves are forced out from the holes formed at the top of the cliff caves, leading to spectacular plumes of water thrown up into the air. The distinctive sound of gushing air can be heard from the holes when the waves crash onto the cliffs.

An easy to access lookout located a short walk from your vehicle. The lookout provides stunning views of the Eastern side of the island, with both sea birds and forest birds soaring overhead.

A religious Taoist temple built by the ethnic Chinese on Christmas Island. It may not look very big, but its architecture with direct views of the nearby blowhole makes it one of the most interesting temples.

This historic house may not seem like much, but this building was the possession of Queen Victoria, back during 1888 and when Christmas Island was a part of the Colony of Singapore.
