Limu Pools

Limu

Natural tidal pools enclosed by reefs, with brilliant blue water and abundant fish. These are Niue's most popular snorkeling spot.

Limu Pools are two shallow pools on the northwest coast near the village of Namukulu, naturally enclosed by reef. Steps and small platforms make it easy to enter the water. The depth is moderate, and fish and coral are abundant. Freshwater seeping in creates an appealing cool layer. It's the best snorkeling spot on the island for beginners and families. There are a gazebo and toilets nearby. Entry is free. Visit around low tide, and the water looks most beautiful in the afternoon when sunlight shines in.
