To Sua Ocean Trench

Tosua literally means a Giant Swimming Hole. 30 meters deep and is accessible via a long ladder to the pool.Overlooking the ocean is a beach called Fagaoneone meaning white sand whereas opposite is a lava field with blow hole, tide pools and walking paths along the rocks near the ocean’s edge.

Reviewed By BexTGAnz - Tauranga, New Zealand

This is such a beautiful spot with a lovely view of the ocean all around. Really scary getting up and down the ladder and the current was quite strong but there was a rope to hang on to. My 7 year old was less scared than me but I wouldn’t have taken him if he was any younger

Piula Cave Pool

Reviewed By 731wayneh - Pottsville, Australia

The water is cool and inviting and you can swim through the the cave to the other side if your game. There are fish in the pool but do not bother the swimmers. A great place for a picnic and a swim.

Lefaga Beach

Reviewed By RobynH767

My son had been to Samoa staying near Apia. He found the Return to Paradise Resort on a day trip on the moped and really enjoyed the day experience. When we were going he recommended we stay there. What a good call. The area is beautiful, relaxing, staff so pleasant and polite. The story of the making of movie and the life time connections made is a very special one. We enjoyed our entire stay, food, service, facilities and oh the sunset!!

Very nice spot. Clear waters and pools and small falls. Walk all over, slowly, peer into waters and rock crevices. We spotted, black salamanders/lizards in the rock walls, and small fish and swimming eels in the shallow down stream river. easy to swim in

Papapapaitai Falls

You don't need to pronounce the name to appreciate these spectacular falls that plunge 500 feet into a volcanic crater, surrounded by a lush rain forest.

Reviewed By dhm80 - Mount Nathan, Australia

A really beautiful waterfall that can be viewed from a roadside stop. No facilities at the view point.

Papaseea Sliding Rock

You may want to try this again and again once you've experienced the thrill of skimming the 16-foot waterfall down this natural rock slide.

Reviewed By ScottMartin - Dunedin, New Zealand

Took a nice little solo mission to the Papaseea Sliding Rock. Easy to find and good road accessible by scooter with a $10 Tala entry fee (which is to be expected at most attractions in Samoa). Arrived and had the place to myself for a start and explored all the different pools and relaxed in this magical space, surrounded by the tropical jungle paradise. Initially didn't see anywhere safe to slide down the rocks, but upon some youth arriving and showing me how it was done, I soon joined in and had a blast. Epic spot whether you want to chill or be more adventurous.
