Introducing Tutuila
Pago Pago's incredible harbour, dominated by breathtaking cliffs and verdant slopes, exemplifies the natural beauty you'll find throughout American Samoa's main island. The serpentine coastline of Tutuila is punctuated by truly lovely coves and bays where you can snorkel, swim and snooze in blissful solitude, while the island's sharp central ridge rises to some impressive peaks. Hike along a summit trail high above Tutuila's centrepiece harbour, trek across the rugged satellite islet of Aunu'u, sink down on the warm sand of an uncluttered beach, or let one of the colourful local buses spirit you with chaotic aplomb from one end of this stunning island to the other.
