Beveridge Reef (Niuean: Nukutulueatama) is a mostly submerged, unpopulated atoll located in the Exclusive Economic Zone of Niue. It has been the cause of several fishing boats running aground or sinking.
Characteristics
The Beveridge Reef is a coral atoll that is approximately 147 miles (237 km) from Niue and 520 miles (840 km) from the Cook Islands.[1][2][3] The reef is normally submerged,[4] with a small part visible at low tide.[1][5]
Wrecks
The reef is the site of frequent shipwrecks:[6]
- in 1918, the schooner James H. Bruce, [7]
- the Nicky Lou of Seattle, a fiberglass hulled fishing vessel that ran aground on the reef, can be seen on the reef.[8][9]
- in 2017, the catamaran Avanti.[10][11]
