Nakaa Beach
Kiribati, Kiribati
Nakaa Beach is a small, remote beach on the northern tip of Makin Atoll in the Gilbert Islands of Kiribati, set in a quiet, traditional island setting far from major tourist hubs. The site holds deep cultural and mythological importance for the local community, as it is regarded in island legend as the departing point where the spirits of the dead leave the world of the living to pass through the gateway to the underworld, guarded by the spirit figure Nakaa. This spiritual significance gives the beach a solemn, almost sacred feel, and it is mainly visited in the context of local customs and beliefs rather than as a typical recreational beach, with little infrastructure and a strong emphasis on its role in oral tradition and ancestral memory.
