Sauniatu Waterfall

To reach this magnificent waterfall, you'll need to put in a little work and bring a 4WD vehicle. From the main road at Saoluafata, a 7-kilometer unpaved road that is something of a rutted track for the final 5 kilometers, leads to the waterfall. Those who persevere will be rewarded with a stunning waterfall and clear pool at its foot, both of which are ideal for a refreshing dip. When not using the pool, modest attire is needed because the Mormon church owns the area around the waterfall.

On the island of Upolu in Western Samoa, the settlement of Sauniatu lies hidden in the crater of an extinct volcano 20 miles to the east of Apia. From Saoluafata town, take the main east coast road 7 kilometers inland to reach the Sauniatu Waterfall and picturesque drive. Beautiful village gardens and magnificent mountain panoramas may be seen during the route.
