Namu'a Island
Namu'a
A small island off Lalomanu with just one family-run beach fale, and a hilltop lookout with panoramic views of the Aleipata Islands.
Namua lies off the eastern tip of Upolu Island and belongs to the Aleipata Islands, making it the closest island to the main island. It has just one family-run beach fale, where you can spend the night and enjoy a slow pace of life without internet. Snorkeling off the shore reveals sea turtles and coral, and at low tide you can walk around the island. A climb of about 15 minutes to the summit viewpoint offers a view over the Lalomanu coastline. Small boats run from Mutiatele Beach to Namua in about 5 minutes, but you need to contact the guesthouse in advance. Note: Boat departures depend on the weather, and services are suspended when winds and waves are strong.
