Samoa is the place to come to relaaaaaax, where you'll soon slow down to the pace of the locals by chilling out in the fa'a Samoa or Samoan Way. Only 50 miles from American Samoa, the two countries share a common culture however the development during the colonial expansion has left contrasting lifestyles.
Samoa is made up of 9 islands, formed through volcanic eruptions, the last one just over a century ago. This has also formed some fantastic surfing breaks to test your skills, or you can take in the surrounding natural beauty of the waterfalls and rainforest.
The two main islands, Upolu and Savaii are where nearly all Samoans live, the only other populated island being Apolima. Everywhere you go you will be welcomed and can experience authentic Polynesian culture. |
