American Samoa Top Things To See

• Don’t miss the harbour of Pago Pago, made famous by Somerset Maugham’s short story, Rain. It is actually the crater of an extinct volcano.

• See Ta'u Island, considered the birthplace of the Polynesian people and therefore recognised as a sacred site. Upolu in neighbouring Samoa is sometimes visible.

• Head to Amanave Village to admire the rugged beauty of the area’s volcanic coastline.

• See the traditional ‘turtle and shark’ legend performed in Vaitogi. Mountain excursions are available at nearby Aoloau.

• Head to Forbidden Bay, claimed to be one of the most beautiful in the South Pacific. Situated on the north coast, it can be reached from Fagasa on a trek or a boat trip.
