The Ofu and Olosega are part of a doublets volcano in the Manu'a group of the Samoan Isles - part of Am. Samoa. Made up of shild-type volcanos, the twins have a total length of 6 km and an area of 12 km2; their number of inhabitants is about 500.
These are geographical vulcanic remains divided by the 137-metre-long, slim street of Ataga, a flat-bottomed, flat-riffed, naturally occurring viaduct. Prior to 1970 at low water one had to walk between the two isles; today a single-lane highway over the straits links Ofu and Olosega towns.
