    Extractions: The Territory of Christmas Island is a small, non self-governing Territory of Australia located in the Indian Ocean , 2360 km northwest of Perth in Western Australia and 500 km south of Jakarta Indonesia . It maintains about 1500 residents who live in a number of towns on the northern tip of the island: Settlement, Silver City, Kampong, Poon Saan, and Drumsite. It has a unique natural topography and is of immense interest to scientists and naturalists due to the number of species of endemic flora and fauna which have evolved in isolation and undisturbed by human habitation. While there has been mining activity on the island for many years, 65 per cent of its 135 square kilometres are now National Park and there are large areas of pristine and ancient rain forests.

It rises steeply to a central plateau dominated by stands of rainforest. The plateau reaches heights of up to 361 metres and consists mainly of limestone with layers of volcanic rock. The Island's 80 km coastline is an almost continuous sea cliff ranging in height up to 20 metres. There are some thirteen places where breaks in the cliff give way to shallow bays and small sand and coral beaches. The largest of these bays forms the Island's port at Flying Fish Cove. The Island is surrounded by an encircling coral reef. There is virtually no coastal shelf and the sea plummets to a depth of about 5 000 metres within 200 metres of the shore. One hour behind Western Standard Time (WST) and three hours behind Eastern Standard Time (EST) i.e. 9.00 a.m. EST = 6.00 a.m. on the Island. Add one hour for daylight saving e.g. 9.00 a.m. EDT = 5.00 a.m. on Christmas Island.
