Samoa · Samoa · Apia

Waterfalls you can jump straight off into a pool below, a village life still built around a communal fale rather than four walls, and a to-sua ocean trench you climb down a ladder into like a secret.

The best time to visit Samoa is May–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 30°C (85°F). Local time there is 11:55 (UTC+13).
