Apia travel guide
Samoa · Top sights · trending spots
Apia is the only city in Samoa, and the country ran a day behind Australia until 2011, when it crossed the date line and skipped 30 December altogether. Robert Louis Stevenson spent his last four years at Vailima above it and is buried on Mount Vaea; the house is now a museum.
To Sua, an hour east, is a collapsed lava tube filled with sea water that you enter down a wooden ladder some thirty metres long. Sunday belongs to church and singing, and almost nothing else opens.
