Traveling the Samoan Way American Samoa

Situated in the southwestern Pacific, halfway between Hawaii and New Zealand, the Samoan island has been populated for more than three thousand years - but the Europeans only discovered it in the 18. or so. At the end of the nineteenth centuary Samoa was divided and the USA absorbs the east. The American Samoais is an area, not a state, composed of five isles ('Tutuila, Anu'u, Ofu, Olosega and Ta'Anu'u) and two atolles ('Rose and Swains Islands); the capitol is Pago Pago.

Why would you want to make the five-hour Hawaiian or half-day Samoa flights? On the other hand, the island is remarkable undeveloped - 90 percent of the country is still covered by rainforests. American Samoa National Park - Tutuila, Ofu, Olosega and Ta'Samoa-on - protects the natural surroundings and allows humans to be there.

There are more than 800 indigenous animals in the area. Alternatively, you can take a cruise to Fagatele Bay in the Fagatele Bay NPN, where you can go swimming with sharks, ocean tortoises, octopus and many other game. Humpbacks stop in Samoa in the fall to breed. The visit to the protected area is free, but you must register with Mr. Asuemu Fuimaono before entering.
