Where we are based in Samoa
Apia
While taking part in volunteer work in Samoa, you’ll be based in the laid-back capital of Apia. It’s situated on the central north coast of Upolu, the country’s second largest island. Apia has a small-town feel, so it’s easy to explore the bay’s main streets by foot.
The city has all the amenities you need, from beachside restaurants to convenience stores. There are beautiful beaches, dive spots, and blue holes just a five minute walk from Apia. You can also go trekking through the lush rainforest further inland, and cool-off in the stunning waterfalls.
