Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Beach
Anibare Bay
The bay combines pale sand, coral rocks and an open horizon. Favour a coastal walk and seek advice before entering water exposed to swell and currents.
Walk
Buada Lagoon
This inland basin surrounded by vegetation contrasts with the mined plateau. View the landscape from permitted access points and respect nearby homes and plots.
Heritage
Topside plateau
The limestone pinnacles in Nauru’s interior reveal the landscape changes left by phosphate extraction. A guided visit helps explain this history and its consequences for the island. Do not enter active or closed mining areas; keep to authorised routes.
