Nauru International Airport (INU)

Getting Around

How to get to and from Nauru International Airport — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.

Transport Options at INU

Nauru International Airport is connected to Yaren and the wider Nauru transport network by multiple ground transport options.

Bus & Shuttle

Public buses run along the island's ring road, but the schedule is described as irregular.

Taxi

Not confirmed as a standing airport service.

Car Rental

Rental is reportedly available on the island generally, but not confirmed as a desk at the terminal itself.

Insider tip

Given the island's tiny scale (about 21 km² total), the airport sits inside Yaren itself, so walking or a short lift is realistic for almost anywhere — but note many shops and services close on Sundays and public holidays.

Transport routes, fares and operators change frequently. Verify current options on the official Nauru International Airport website before travel.

Pre-Book Your Transfer

Skip the taxi queue. Book a private transfer from INU to Yaren in advance and have a driver waiting when you land.

Ground Transport Tips for INU

Only use official taxi ranks or pre-booked apps at Nauru International Airport. Avoid unofficial drivers approaching you in arrivals.
If a rail or metro connection exists, it is usually the fastest and most reliable option during rush hour.
Allow extra time for ground transport during peak hours. Yaren city traffic can significantly extend journey times.
Download offline maps for Yaren before landing — useful if your data connection is slow on arrival.
If travelling with heavy luggage, a private transfer or taxi is often more practical than public transport.
