Midway Atoll - Clearance

Jul 31, 2019

Midway Atoll (the Midway Wildlife refuge and the Battle of Midway National memorial) is closed to visitors and has been since 2013.

Due to budget issues U.S. Fish & Wildlife suspended all visitor programs on Midway Atoll starting in 2013. The visitor program is still not open as at July 2019.

See this US website and the FWS site for the current situation.

Previously, when visiting was allowed, advance permission was required and on arrival, a USFWS official would make arrangements to meet you and your crew for a briefing.

Any visiting boat would be inspected for pests in order to preserve the ecological integrity of the islands. Strictly, no pets are allowed.
