Nauru is an island country located in the South Pacific Ocean. Its closest neighbor is Banaba Island 300 kilometres east. It is the third smallest state in the world, behind the Vatican City and Monaco. The country is the smallest independent republic.

The warm, humid climate means that beach-goers will have plenty of time to explore. Even inland there is water. The Buada Lagoon is a freshwater lagoon surrounded by tall palm trees and greenery. While you can’t swim in it, it’s an amazing photo opportunity.

Travellers who enjoy being active will never be short of something to do in Nauru. A sealed road goes around the entire island so visitors can see the beautiful scenery in one trip. Walking the circuit takes about 6 hours, biking about 2-3 hours, and driving 25 minutes. Travellers can also explore relics from the World War 2 in Yaren, climb Command Ridge, or even fish out in the Harbor.

After a long day exploring, there are plenty of delicious restaurants to explore. For drinks, head to Reef Bar at the Menen hotel. Visits to Nauru are a perfect combination of exploration and relaxation.

Command Ridge is Nauru’s highest point and a fun place to climb. On top are antennas and nearby satellite dishes. Here the Japanese built strongholds during the second world war. While walking up and down the pinnacles of Command Ridge you’ll see Japanese bunkers. From the top of those you can see anti-aircraft installations pointed skywards. Hidden in thick vegetation, tucked into Command Ridge, is also a Japanese prison. World War II enthusiasts will have plenty to explore and discover on a trip to Nauru.
