The Western Samoa region is a place where you will not only get to watch the best scenic sights but also the most fascinating adventure sports activities. Come here and enjoy the pleasures of diving in the Samoa region. Also you have the richest islands with the best marine life and the most magnificent reefs as the main background.

With the warm waters of the clear sea providing great visibility the divers here surely would want to come back for more and thus the Western Samoa provides irresistible travel delights.
While here also go to Upolu and see The Rock. This is the lovely land between 12 -18 metres and you would feel as if you are inside an aquarium. With the giant clams and the hard corals the clown trigger fish, anemone and the tropical fish dominate this place. The soft corals are seen at around 18 metres and you would certainly love the sights of the sharks that form the mainstay here.
The Apolima Island is another beautiful spot here. It begins at around 8 metres and drops to 40 metres. It is a wonderful plethora of life and colour and you would be amazed to see the colour between 10 and 20 metres. Go past the large corals which also hide the rainbow runners and the lobsters. Added to this you would have the napoleon the unicorn fish, the reef sharks, the turtles and the blue fin trevally which are the main features of this dive.
There is another island the Savai’I which is a great tourist attraction in the Western Samoa. This is where you have the wreck “Juno” which is a very easy diving attraction. Here one reaches by boat and it takes only 5 minutes by boat. This wreck has the best collection of corals, turtles, trumpet fish and also many parrot fish, big eyes and yellow snappers. The depth of this place is around 25 meters.
With flights coming from all parts of the world, the Western Samoa is connected to most countries of the world like Australia, New Zealand, Tonga, American Samoa, Fiji etc. Falelolo International Airport is the main entry point and it lies around 35 kms from the Apia region on the Upolu Island.
Western Samoa is very popular for its gentle ambience and peaceful life. The ancient customs that are followed here are seen influencing the everyday life of the people. The Fa’a Samoa is a way of life in Samoa and has influenced the daily life of the people here. Upolo and Savaii are the two major islands here and there are eight other islands which have equal travel attractions.
With a lot of adventure sports and water sports facilities, the Samoa adventures are very thrilling and attracts many tourists to this part of the world.
Snorkeling and diving are other activities for which this region is famous. Snorkelling thrives in high tide and the tourist love that they don’t need to walk on the corals during snorkeling during high tide. Some of the best waves and the most fascinating coastline of the tropics are found here in Samoa. Surfing is thus another favourite option of the tourists coming here. The Palolo Deep Marine Reserve and the Safotu beaches are very preferred destinations.
The Western Samoa is surely a must see spot for all tourists and offers great travel attractions.
