Here travellers will find islands blessed with natural beauty, a tropical paradise where the environment is pristine, the people friendly and hospitable, and a living culture treasured by all. Samoa's natural wonders of waterfalls, rainforests, mountains, volcanoes, and miles of white sand beaches beckon the traveller seeking peace and quiet away from the hustle & bustle of modern society.

Samoa consists of an island group, and the two main islands, Upolu and Savai'i, account for approximately 96% of the total land area.

The capital, Apia, and the International Airport are located on the island of Upolu. Apia is vibrant by day or night and boasts a variety of shops, restaurants, bars, nightclubs, and a colourful market place. Some points of interest not to be missed include the Robert Louis Stevenson Museum at Vailima, the sacred burial grounds at Mulinuu and the Papase'ea Sliding Rocks, all located close to Apia.

The 'big island' of Savai'i is easily accessible from Upolu by a 75-minute ferry trip or 20-minute flight. Although less populated and developed than Upolu, Savai'i should not be missed. Here, the local people live life at an easy and gentle pace. With stunning white beaches and superb scenery, it is a must for any visitor wishing to explore the real Samoa.

Samoa is proud of its unique culture and heritage. Fa'a Samoa (the Samoan way) has a strong focus on welcoming visitors, making this destination the perfect place for your next holiday.

Take time out from the everyday and step into Samoa for a truly unique and vibrant holiday.
