The beautiful island nation of Samoa is situated just across the International Dateline about half way between Australia and North America. Samoa is the Heart of Polynesia and is one of the last bastions of Polynesian culture. Samoa has a population of around 160,000 people. The majority of whom still practise time honoured customs and the traditional way of life. There are two main islands, Upolo (where the capital Apia is located) and Savaii (The BIG Island).
Samoa offers it’s visitors a very special holiday experience. Fantastic Fishing, kilometres of white sand beaches, spectacular waterfalls, traditional villages, and a unique people and culture. One of the great things about Samoa is that so much of the country (Ocean and Land) is untouched. Global Commercialisation has not made it’s mark on this Jewel of the Pacific. No large hotel chains and no theme parks. However there are some beautiful world class Golf Courses for those who like to chase the little white ball. |
