Visiting Sopoaga Falls, South Coast, Upolu

About this guide
Powerful tiered falls on Upolu's south side viewed from a private clifftop garden that includes a re-creation of a traditional Samoan village. The drop is dramatic — best after rain when the river is full — and the gardens themselves are worth a slow wander.
