Beveridge Reef is a submerged atoll located in the Exclusive Economic Zone of Niue. A small part of the reef is only visible at low tide; most of it is under shallow water. It has been the cause of several fishing boats running aground. During the past twenty years, the Government of Niue has sent several fishing boats to Beveridge with local fishermen on board.

  • Beveridge Reef is a submerged atoll located in the Exclusive Economic Zone of Niue. A small part of the reef is only visible at low tide; most of it is under shallow water. It has been the cause of several fishing boats running aground. During the past twenty years, the Government of Niue has sent several fishing boats to Beveridge with local fishermen on board. The most recent of such trips was on the Tahitian cargo vessel that came to Niue as part of the Tahiti recovery assistance following Cyclone Heta. Commercial fishing boats licensed to fish in Niue waters now frequent Beveridge; however, in 2006 another fishing vessel ran aground, despite the licensing provision that fishing vessels are supposed to stay at least one mile away from the reef. The "Nicky Lou" of Seattle is a fiberglass hulled fishing vessle that ran aground on the reef. It is mostly intact and above water.
  • Das Beveridge-Riff ist ein verschüttetes ringförmiges Korallenriff, auch Atoll genannt. Es befindet sich in der ausschließlichen Wirtschaftszone der Savage Island im pazifischen Ozean – dem heutigen Niue – südlich von Samoa und westlich der Cookinseln. Ein kleiner Teil des Riffs ist nur bei Ebbe, der größte davon bereits bei flachem Wasser sichtbar. Das Riff ist eine der Ursachen dafür, dass Fischerboote feststecken oder abtreiben. Aus diesem Grund wird für den kommerziellen Fischfang eine Lizenz benötigt.
