There's a reason we're called the Treasured Islands of the South Pacific.
Comprising of ten islands, Samoa has something to offer every type traveler, from gentle
rainforest hikes to fun water sport activities and of course, swimming with the turtles!
A day at Papaseea Sliding Rock is a favourite past time with Samoan families.
A trip to author Robert Louis Stevenson's house in Vailima conjures up romantic images
of the South Pacific, making Samoa an obvious inspiration for his famous novel, Treasure Island.
Those looking for a soft adventure option must not miss out on the powerful blowholes
of Savaii or the stunning swimming site, To Sua Trench at Upolu.
For those looking for a romantic getaway, Samoa's coast is dotted with glorious beach
front resorts ranging from deluxe properties offering a little (or a lot) of luxury in an
intimate setting, or the traditional fale - a Samoan beach hut located steps away from the
glistening waters and surf breaks of the South Pacific.
State of the art conference centres are located in Upolu, making Samoa the perfect place
for your next meeting and conference while our new sporting facility meet international
standards and is a popular off season training ground for international teams for Rugby and Swimming.
However, what really sets us apart is our Fa'a Samoa, a unique tradition 3,000 years
in the making and is the essence of the Samoan culture. We see this as a guide on how
we manage our relationships with our family, our elders, our community and the environment.
With an emphasis on respect and pride for oneself, each other and the environment,
coming to Samoa is like entering one big family home, where everyone takes care of and watches out for each other!

If you really think about it, it’s amazing how little
time we actually spend with our families. Work, after school activities and social obligations all contribute to the time we spend away from
those that matter most to us.

The scent of frangipani wafts through
the air, the ocean laps onto the beach and the sun is setting over the horizon. You have come to these beautiful islands to marry, and beside you is your soul mate and true love, saying the words ‘I do’. |

From sunrise or sunsets over sparkling white sandy beaches, stunning waterfalls, lush tropical rainforests,
perfectly manicured gardens and the sweet harmonies floating out of colonial churches from the local village choirs, one might ask, “why Samoa for our next conference or event?” |
|
Nothing quite compares to the joy of reconnecting with family and friends who still live in our island
paradise – and there’s no better place to go to recharge, refresh and remind us of what truly is important in life: family and friends. |

Samoa's sporting facilities are among the best in the South Pacific. Many were either built or improved for the 2007 South Pacific Games which Samoa hosted. With the range of sports facilities Samoa offers, you'll soon find out why Samoa is the ideal training or host destination for teams.
