Overview
Nauru is an expensive destination primarily because nearly all goods, including food and fuel, must be imported to this remote Pacific island nation. Accommodation options are very limited, with only a handful of hotels on the island, keeping prices elevated and competitive supply low. The high cost of flights to reach Nauru — typically via Brisbane or Fiji — adds significantly to the overall trip cost beyond daily spending.
Notes
Self-catering where possible using the small local supermarkets can cut food costs noticeably, and renting a bicycle or motorbike is far cheaper than relying on taxis for getting around the island's single perimeter road.
