Adventure Tours Nauru

Adventure Tours in Nauru

Nauru is a tiny island nation in the Pacific. It has no tour companies, but local drivers and guides can be arranged through your hotel, and the island has a rugged character.

Explore the Island’s Landscape

• Visit Command Ridge, the highest point on the island at 65 m, with views over the surrounding waters. It is a short stop rather than a hike.
• See Buada Lagoon, a landlocked, slightly brackish lake surrounded by palms and tamanu trees, with a road around it. It is not for swimming.
• Cross Topside, the mined plateau of limestone pinnacles, with a local guide.

Local Life

• Watch Australian rules football at Linkbelt Oval in Aiwo. Ask at your hotel about fixtures.
• Explore the coastal districts on the paved ring road, about 19 km around.

The Sea

• Dive the reef wall just beyond the reef flat. Bring your own gear and arrange tank fills and boat transport through Menen Hotel.
• Try your hand at fishing, with tuna, wahoo, mahi-mahi and marlin to catch on a local charter.
• The surf at Anibare Bay is heavy and rip currents are strong, with no lifeguards, so stay out of the open water.

Tips for Your Adventure

• Pack light, breathable clothing and closed shoes for walking and exploring.
• Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to protect yourself from the tropical sun.
• Respect Nauru’s environment and culture by taking all trash with you and being mindful of local customs.
• Cyclones and heavy swells are possible from November to May.
