Samoa, one of the last unspoiled tropical islands

Have you ever dreamed of being hugged by the calming heat of the unadulterated sun? Well, it’s time for you to know that there is a place like this, just waiting for you to arrive and feel the love that it can give you. It is called Samoa.
Samoa is located in the Pacific Ocean about 3,500 miles off the east coast of Australia; Although the islands are located just after the International Date Line, there is an almost 24-hour time difference between Apia, the capital, and Cairns in North Queensland.
A slow awakening to tourism

The benefit of this for visitors coming to the area is that they are rewarded with some of the most unspoiled and breathtaking scenery anywhere in the world. Populated by proud and powerful people who are as warm and welcoming today as their fierce and brave ancestors in days gone by, the locals are as attracted to Samoa as the inherent natural beauty of the islands.
