Main lagoon
A large lagoon opens to the ocean on the northwest side, near the village of London. It is the main shelter for boats and anchors the island's shape on the map.

Kiritimati Map Poster & Print
Kiritimati, also known as Christmas Island, is one of the Line Islands in the central Pacific and belongs to Kiribati. It is the largest coral atoll in the world by land area. Seen from above, it looks less like a neat ring than a claw. A wide lagoon opens to the sea in the northwest, and the land around it spreads out in broad flats.
Much of the interior is a patchwork of shallow lagoons and salt ponds, some fully enclosed and separated by narrow strips of coral sand. On a map this creates an unusually complex pattern, with more water than land in places. Most of the island's villages sit near the main lagoon in the northwest, connected by a handful of roads.
Captain James Cook reached the atoll on Christmas Eve in 1777, which gave it its English name. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, Britain and the United States carried out nuclear weapons tests in the area. Today the island is known for its seabird colonies and for fly fishing on the flats. A Kiritimati map poster turns its tangle of ponds into a striking graphic.

Inland salt ponds
Many shallow ponds fill the island's interior, divided by thin strips of land. Printed in black and white, they form a dense mosaic and are the most distinctive feature of the poster.
Seabird reserves
Parts of the atoll and its small offshore islets are protected for nesting seabirds, which gather here in very large numbers. These areas remain largely free of roads and buildings.

Cur Kiritimati
Tabula quae aliquid significat
Few people ever reach Kiritimati, which makes its map special to those who have: anglers who came for the flats, researchers, veterans connected to the test years, and I-Kiribati families far from home. Its outline is so unusual that it reads almost like abstract art.
Change the title, add a subtitle such as a year or a family name, and personalise the coordinates line. Five styles are available. Blueprint and Noir bring out the ponds, and Sand keeps the look soft. Download the HD files for $9 or order a printed poster on matte paper.
