Safety Tips
Nauru is generally safe with low crime. The main challenges are environmental (sun, limited healthcare) and logistical (very limited facilities). The presence of Australian refugee detention centers creates some sensitivities. Drinking and social issues exist but rarely affect tourists.

Culture & Travel Tips
Best Time to Visit
Nauru has a tropical climate year-round. The dry season (March-October) is slightly preferable. The wet season (November-February) brings more rain. Temperatures are consistently warm (25-35°C).
Cultural Notes
Nauru has a unique culture shaped by its isolation, phosphate wealth (once world's richest per capita), and subsequent economic collapse. Traditional fishing and storytelling persist. The island has one of the world's highest obesity rates. The legacy of environmental destruction from mining is visible everywhere.
Insider Tips
Nauruan and English are official languages. The Australian Dollar is the currency. Nauru is one of the world's smallest countries - you can drive around it in 30 minutes. There is almost no tourism infrastructure. The island was devastated by phosphate mining. Bring all medications and essentials.
