SAVAII SURFARIES
The island of Savaii has many surf breaks on its north and south coasts. Swells can come in from all points of the compass, and the quality of the waves depends greatly on swell direction. With Savaii Surfaris' years of experience of tracking weather systems and assessing swell conditions you can be assured that you will get to surf the best waves possible during your stay.
Aganoa Right and Aganoa Left surf breaks are within paddling distance of the beach, and for the pick of the other possibilities, Savaii Surfaris operate two 12-seater vans, a 15-foot Avon inflatable boat and a 20-foot aluminium sports fishing vessel.
Wherever the waves are happening on Savaii the best possible access is provided by van and/or boat - all included in our surfing package. Local staff and a roster of selected Australian surfers assist in the daily operations, and their dedication and knowledge enable Savaii Surfaris to provide the very best in service to visiting surfers.
Accommodation is in traditional palm-thatched beach falés on the southeast coast at Aganoa Beach. The location is very secluded, adjacent to a conservation reserve on the edge of the rainforest, right on the beach. Savaii's scenic attractions, like the Tafua Crater and Olemoe Waterfall, are a short distance away, as is Salelologa, the main town and ferry terminal.
All falés feature comfortable beds, mosquito nets, electricity and convenient access to a central amenities block with hot showers. The beachside restaurant and bar overlooks the lagoon with views of the surf and coast - a great place for a tropical breakfast or a sunset drink.
Full breakfast includes cereal, toast and tropical fruits, while dinners feature fresh seafood, regular BBQ nights and traditional Samoan roast. Beach falé packages are ideal for small groups of surfers, couples or families who want to experience a real Samoan style holiday. The friendliness of the staff, delicious meals and cultural experience have proved to be very popular with surfers of all ages, and their families.
The snorkeling here is excellent with coral gardens and abundant tropical fish. Bicycles are available for exploring the local villages at your own pace - a wonderful experience of a different way of life. Be sure to visit the local 'tapa' makers, who produce an unusual paper-like cloth from tree bark - a perfect souvenir of Samoa.
