Staying Connected on Savai'i: New Towers Boost Island Connectivity
Digicel's new towers on Savai'i mean better connectivity, making it easier than ever to share your adventures from Samoa's beautiful big island.

“Digicel Samoa has launched new telecommunications towers in Samalaeulu and Falelima to improve mobile and data connectivity for customers across Savai’i.”
It's always good news when our islands become a little more connected, and a recent Samoa Observer article highlights just that. Digicel Samoa has launched two new telecommunications towers on Savai'i, specifically in Samalaeulu and Falelima. This is a real boost for visitors and locals alike, improving mobile and data connectivity across the island.
Savai'i is Samoa's larger, more tranquil island, known for its stunning natural beauty and laid-back pace. While getting away from it all is part of its charm, being able to reliably connect with loved ones, share photos of your day's discoveries, or even sort out travel plans on the go is increasingly important. These new towers mean better call quality and faster, more dependable data services for thousands of residents and, of course, for anyone exploring this gorgeous part of Samoa.
This investment in infrastructure shows a commitment to Savai'i's growth and digital access. For us at Kalena, it makes the prospect of a visit to the 'big island' even more appealing. Imagine exploring the lava fields or swimming in a pristine natural pool, then easily uploading your favourite moments. It truly enhances the travel experience, blending that essential sense of escape with the convenience of modern connectivity. If you're planning a trip, be sure to see what's available on Savai'i for your stay.
