Mu Pagoa Waterfall

Since it didn't appear to have any infrastructure specifically for tourists, the Mu Pagoa Waterfall is more of a residents' waterfall. The main river on the island empties into the sea at this stunning waterfall, making it an ideal location to capture images of Samoan nature and the nearby habitations. Mu Pagoa is shaped like a horseshoe and gives a distinctive view of the island together with the palm trees in the backdrop. Its height is believed to be around 5 meters (16 feet). In fact, this may be considered one of the waterfalls that fell right into the sea.

Since the waterfall is situated at a point along the coast where lava met the Pacific Ocean, it is obvious that the waterfall was created by a lava flow. The coastline terminates in a short steep cliff into the sea, with only little erosion of the lava's surface. This magnificent waterfall, a remarkable natural phenomenon, plunges directly into the roiling ocean. From beneath the Puleia bridge, a sizable open river flows in the direction of the sea. An fantastic location for capturing photographs and seeing how the local villagers use this natural resource in their day-to-day activities. The village's history is strongly influenced by the name of the falls.
