Namua Island
Small island just off Upolu's east coast in Aleipata, accessed by short boat ride from Lalomanu. Family-run beach fales, snorkel-with-turtles in the lagoon, walking trails up the bluff for east-coast views, and the kind of quiet that comes only from being on an island off an island.
Also known as: Namu'a, Namu'a Island, Namua, Namua Aleipata, Namua Island Samoa, Turtle Island

Best stays in Upolu, Samoa
Upolu is where most Samoa trips start. Faleolo International Airport, the capital Apia, and the bulk of the country's resort-tier accommodation all sit here. The south coast (Lalomanu, Lotofaga, Siumu) is the postcard side; the north has Apia and the working harbour.
Things to do in Samoa: tours, activities, and day trips
Samoa rewards travellers who get out of the resort. Most of the iconic photos (To-Sua, Lalomanu, Alofaaga blowholes, the canopy walk) are 60–90-minute drives from wherever you're staying — and the easiest way to see them is on a guided tour with a local operator who knows the village fees and the best swimming windows.
