Generally very safe with extremely low crime rates; the main risks are stray dogs which can be aggressive; the sun is very intense, so use high-factor sunscreen; healthcare is limited at the Nauru General Hospital; for critical issues, medical evacuation to Australia is common.

The island is so small (21 sq km) that you can drive around it in 20 minutes; walking and cycling the 19km perimeter road is popular; there is no scheduled public transport, but many residents offered lifts; car and motorbike rentals can be arranged through local guesthouses.

Respect local customs and Christian traditions; dress modestly in public; siempre avoid littering the reef; Nauruans are very friendly, so greetings are always appreciated; permission should be sought before exploring the mined-out interior (Topside).
