About this guide
A spring-fed freshwater pool inside a sea-cave on the grounds of Piula Theological College, on Upolu's north coast 26km east of Apia. The water is glass-clear and cool — small reef fish slip through an underwater passage that connects two cathedral-quiet grottos. A short, slippery walk down from the road; bring reef shoes and underwater goggles. Closed Sundays.
