South Upolu

A heavy reef on the south of Upolu, not a lagoon swim. Boulders is a named peak on the Samoa coast, warm water, a takeoff that is not a first morning. Salani is the other name people use on this island. This page is the reef.

When.

April to October

South swell in the southern winter. A small day is just the reef edge.

Worth knowing.

  1. 1. This is not a beginner lagoon. The reef is the session.
  2. 2. Watch a set from the sand before you paddle. The water is warm. The takeoff is not mellow.
  3. 3. Southern winter is the window. The wet months are a different wind.
  4. 4. Apia is the town. The south coast is the other side of the island.

Go.
