SamoaThings to Know

Experience Samoa's vibrant culture with respect and preparedness.

Samoa's climate is tropical, so pack lightweight clothing, sunscreen, and insect repellent. The official languages are Samoan and English, but learning a few basic Samoan phrases to connect with the locals is helpful. Samoa is a conservative society, so it's essential to dress modestly outside the beach or resort areas. When participating in cultural ceremonies, bringing a small gift to show respect and appreciation is customary. Lastly, remember that Sundays are considered sacred in Samoa, so many businesses and activities are limited.
