Samoa is a young volcanic island, so young that the extinct volcanic peaks of Upolu Island have yet to be eroded and those on Savaii are still growing. The last eruption was in 1911! With over 300 volcanoes, 6000 foot mountains and unique rainforest, mangrove and marine ecosystems, this is a truly beautiful environment to explore.

Samoa is a birdwatchers' paradise with 11 endemic bird species. You can explore a mangrove conservation area by traditional canoe or just walk along our nature trails listening to all the local legends, learning about Samoa's efforts to protect sites of natural and cultural significance and glimpsing some of our outstanding hardwood trees, native medicinal plants and hidden waterfalls.
