Samoa Cultural Village

Discover Samoa's age-old culture and traditions in a fun and interactive way at the Samoa Cultural Village on Beach Road in the heart of Apia. Fa'a Samoa - the Samoan Way! Samoa is a traditional Polynesian society with Fa'a Samoa playing a vital role in village and community life. Samoans are proud of their strong Fa'a Samoa - which means 'the Samoan Way'. It is the essence of the Samoan culture and dictates how Samoans are meant to behave and their obligations to their elders, superiors, family, community, church and the environment. There are over 362 nu'u or villages in Samoa with a total of 18,00 matais (chiefs). Churches of various denominations feature in every village while meeting houses and open fales or homes encircle the malae or village green. Fa'a Samoa has a strong focus on welcoming visitors making Samoans friendly and hospitable hosts. However, Samoans expect their guests to observe and respect local customs. For a quick insight into Samoa's culture and traditions, visit the Samoa Cultural Village today.

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

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!!
