Enchanted River is found in Philippines.

It is called "enchanted" because no one has ever reached its bottom.

Many people, including scuba divers, have tried reaching for the bottom but have failed,

hence the legend of its bottomless pit.

Moreover, locals share that NOBODY has been successful in catching the fish in this

river, whether by hand or by spear.

They say its bluish color is a result of its depth and the water clarity changes throughout

the day. At around 12:00 pm, the water becomes clearer and even more majestic.

The Astonishing Annual Red Crab Migration.
Each year millions of bright red land crabs leave their burrow homes on

Australia's Christmas Island and start a long, laborious trek toward the sea.

They descend cliffs, climb banks and maneuver around obstacles to reach the

shoreline and lay their eggs, eventually returning to the island's central plateau

with their offspring in tow.

The synchronized migration resembles a crimson-colored river undulating across

the island and can last up to 18 days.

The event typically takes place in November or December (the crabs will only move

when it's raining) and coincides with the turning of high tide and the arrival of the

waning moon.
