Facts about Nauru
Nauru is the world’s smallest independent republic and happens to be a top destination for tourists who enjoy the wonders of the sea, beaches, great landscape scenery & quiet time . A lot of tourists who visit the country choose diving and swimming as the top activity to take part in during their stay. Tourists also like to try out their hand on deep sea game fishing on privately-owned boats hired out by locals. Sea creatures like yellowfin, skipjack tuna, barracuda, and marlin are likely to be captured during this activity.
Foreigners can relax on the white side beaches or go hiking through the pinnacles of the phosphate mines. Tourism in Nauru is not a major contributor to the economy. The country is one of the least visited countries in the world and receives only about 200 tourists a year.
Nauru is a peaceful island and crime is very rare and there are hardly natural disasters but it could potentially be struck by tsunamis. There’s also a rampant obesity problem amongst a large number of the population.
