The flag of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands features a green field symbolizing the islands’ lush vegetation. On the hoist side is a palm tree and a crescent moon, both in gold. The palm tree represents the tropical flora and the traditional way of life linked to agriculture on the islands. The crescent moon reflects the predominantly Muslim population, denoting the Islamic faith and cultural heritage of the Malay community. The fly side shows the Southern Cross constellation in gold, which signifies the geographic location in the Southern Hemisphere and points to the islands’ historical and political ties with Australia. The colors and symbols on the flag combine to reflect the natural beauty, cultural traditions, and community beliefs of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands.
