Travel tips for American Samoa

  • 1

    Bring sturdy reef-safe sunscreen, as American Samoa’s strong sun and pristine waters mean you’ll be applying it often.

  • 2

    Pack lightweight, breathable clothing to stay cool in the humid tropical climate, but also include a light jacket for cooler evenings near the shore.

  • 3

    Respect local customs by asking permission before taking photos of people or sacred sites, as politeness is highly valued in Samoan culture.
