Paia is a destination that has loads of cool stories to tell. If you feel like your life's been a bit boring lately, a trip here is the perfect answer!
It's located 80 kilometres from Apia and its energetic streets.
You won't need to be stuck on the road all day to experience some nature. Just 8 kilometres out of Paia, Peapea Cave is a favourite spot to sit back and relax. More tranquil surrounds await at Afu Aau Falls, 30 kilometres away.
Go and soak in the atmosphere at Paia Dwarfs Cave.
Manase is 4 kilometres to the northeast and worth a day trip. After more ideas? Fagamalo, 6 kilometres to the northeast of Paia, should be your second stop.
Whether it's for a bit of shopping or to see the sights, travellers often make their way over to Vaitele, 75 kilometres to the southeast. National Parliament, Papaseea Sliding Rocks and the Faleata Golf Course are all close at hand. Of course, you wouldn't want to pass up Maketi Fou and Flea Market either.
Feeling ready to chew, nibble, chomp, gnaw and drink your way through Samoa? A world of tantalising flavours is waiting for you, so get on your stretchiest slacks and bon appétit!
A meal here often includes crayfish and taro, two common ingredients for which this part of the world is famous for serving up.
When Paia locals talk to you about their favourite food, you'll probably hear taro root seasoned and baked in oven or oka l’a (marinated raw fish) uttered a few times. These specialties are part of the area's identity and should be on any foodie's must-eat list.
Travel calories don't count, right? So it's a terrific excuse to treat yourself to cooked green bananas in coconut cream, a beloved dessert.
Ask any avid traveller and they'll tell you that the easiest way to enhance your travel experience is to try out a few local expressions and phrases. 'Fa'amolemole' can be translated as 'please'. Maybe you'll find 'Ete ta fia siva?' easier to get your head around? It means 'would you like to dance?'.
What better way to discover more about a place than by being there during a day of national celebration? There'll be many festivities organised for Independence Day Celebration on the 1st of June.
The good news is that Paia will stay just where you found it, so this "Tōfā soifua" has no need to be your last!
Ready to take to the skies? Map a route, pack your bag and set your alarm clock. The closest airport, Faleolo International Airport (APW), is about 60 kilometres to the southeast.
Chasing a bit of rest and relaxation? All your troubles are sure to melt away as you slide between the crisp, clean sheets at the Le Lagoto Resort & Spa and Stevenson's at Manase.
