My Travel Diary Webseries Part 7: Nadi, Fiji to Apia, Samoa

From Nadi, Fiji it will take almost 2 hours flight to reach Apia, the capital of Western Samoa. I’m going to Samoa not MOA (Mall of Asia)!

It’s a different adventure hitting the ride under ATR-72 aircraft, the propeller type airplane with seating capacity of 60 pax.

In case you are not aware, there are two Samoan countries. One is the independent country Samoa or Western Samoa and the other is American Samoa, territory of United States. Apia is the capital city of Independent State of Samoa and the official languages are English and Samoan. It was under German Empire from 1900 to 1914, then colonized by New Zealand from 1914 to 1962 and gained independence in 1962.

Did you know Samoa is one of the first countries to welcome New Year due to its timezone.



I usually booked standard hotel room during my tour but this time I opted the Samoan traditional bungalow room. Feels like I am in the old days and they provided mosquito net. The breakfast is typical bread with butter jam and variety of fresh fruits.

Since I have limited time, I went for a self-walking tour from the hotel to city center of Apia. It is pretty much safe to walk and the locals are friendly.



The Immaculate Conception of Mary Cathedral is a Catholic Church in Apia. I thought the church is new, but it undergoes restoration due to the earthquake in 2009. It has a unique exterior color but unfortunately it was closed when I went for a visit.

Apia Clock Tower is a gift to Samoan people by the businessman and politician Ta’isi Olaf Frederick Nelson. The clock has been a national war memorial to commemorate the Samoan-born soldiers who fought in World War 1 & 2.

The roof of Government Building of Samoa is oval shape painted with brown color. The height of the building is 34 meters with 8 floors and completed in 1994.

Samoa Cultural Village is located in the city center of Apia on Beach Road. It offers unique experience especially for tourist like me who wants to try Fa’a Samoa or “The Samoan Way”. The staff are very hospitable and friendly that will make you feel at home. They are showing how strong their culture despite we are now in modern days. The entrance to the village is absolutely free.

They have a live presentation on how they are cooking their traditional food.
