Samoa - the Sacred Center

The word Samoa can be translated in many ways. One way is "Sacred Center". "Sa" means sacred and "moa" means center. We bring you on a journey of discovery, and adventure. Come to Samoa to explore your own sacred center.

Pronounced “SAH-moa” with a long first syllable, Samoa is made up of 10 islands that are surrounded by the warm crystal-clear blue waters of the Pacific Ocean. Travelers will find islands blessed with natural beauty, a tropical paradise where the environment is pristine; friendly and hospitable people; and a living culture treasured by all.

Discover what the great writer Robert Louis Stevenson discovered during his stay in Samoa as evident from the following quote.

"They are easy, merry, and leisure-loving….Song is almost ceaseless…"

Samoa's natural wonders of waterfalls, rainforests, mountains, volcanoes, and miles of white sandy beaches beckon the adventurer seeking peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of modern society.

Experience Samoa Culture

The Samoan people are hospitable and eager hosts to visitors from afar. Also, the living culture, Fa'a Samoa (the Samoan way), still continues with a 3,000 year history, centering around the extended family unit, full of love and respect for all people. Experience a holiday destination like no other, uniquely tropical, exciting and distinctively Samoan.
