Visiting Sopoaga Falls, South Coast, Upolu
Sopoaga Falls is one of South Coast, Upolu's most-visited waterfalls. This guide pairs the place with the stays nearby and the tours that include it on their itinerary, so you can plan a trip without bouncing between five tabs.
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.
