Savai'i

Savai’i, the “soul of Samoa”, is the larger of the two main islands in the state of Samoa. It is home to approximately 50,000 people. Savaii is less developed than the other main Samoan island of Upolu. The ports of Salelologa and Asau are situated on Savai’i.

Savai’i is home of the Pulemelei Mound, Taga Blowholes, and Moso's Footprint, which dates back to prehistoric times. Falealupo is just 20 miles from the dateline and is therefore the most westernmost point of Samoa.
