📍 Where to go in American Samoa
- Pago Pago – The territory's hub sits on a dramatic fjord-like harbour ringed by steep rainforest and Rainmaker Mountain. It is the base for markets, buses and boat trips.
- National Park of American Samoa – Rainforest, sea cliffs and coral reefs across three islands, with land partly leased from villages so local life continues inside the park.
- Ofu & Olosega – Twin islands linked by a bridge, with an almost empty white-sand beach and outstanding snorkelling. Travel here is slow and simple.
- Ta'u – The ancestral heart of Samoan tradition, with some of the highest sea cliffs in the Pacific and very few visitors.
- Fagatele Bay – A sheltered crater bay protecting corals, turtles and seasonal whale visitors. A good stop for nature lovers.
- Aunu'u Island – A peaceful volcanic islet with a crater lake and traditional village life, reached by a short boat hop.
