  In this paper we find examples of slant surfaces in the nearly Kahler six
sphere. First, we characterize two-dimensional small and great spheres which
are slant. Their description is given in terms of the associative 3-form in
$\Im \OO .$ Later on, we classify the slant surfaces of $S^6$ which are orbits
of maximal torus in $G_2.$ We show that these orbits are flat tori which are
linearly full in $S^5\subset S^6$ and that their slant angle is between
$\arccos \frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{\pi}{2}.$ Among them we find one parameter
family of minimal orbits.
