Taga Blowholes
Taga Coastline
|
Meaole's Beach Fales is located in a protected rocky bay along the wild coastline of southern Savai'i. Our three traditional fales are built in amongst our tropical fruit garden, with one fale on the ocean front. We are a ten minute walk to the famous Taga blowholes and the spectacular remote coastline that extends for 40 miles to the north-west. This is one of the best coastal walks in Samoa with secluded cove beaches, rocky lagoons, sea arches, tidal pools and blowholes.

Getting There:
Polynesian Airlines offers fights from Faleolo Intternational Airport on the north west coast of Upolu to Moata Airport, about five km from Salelologa Town on the south eastern tip of Savai'i. Cost is about ST$50 one way with five flights per day and take just 20 minutes offering aerial sightseeing on the way. Ferries depart Mulifanua Wharf on eastern Upolu five times a day, costing just ST$7 one way and taking 1 hour and 15 minutes. There's a twice daily fast ferry taking just 45-minutes and costing a couple dollars more.
The easiest way to get to Taga is to take the Green Turtle Tour which stops at the blowholes every day. Green Turtle are based in Salelologa and depart each day at 8am from Salelologa Wharf, and at 9pm from Manase. Simply purchase your travel pass which enables you to hop-on and hop-off the bus as many times as you like during your stay and take a scenic and educational tour en-route.
A taxi direct to Taga from Salelologa Wharf will cost about ST$30 (takes 50 minutes).
Car rental is best arranged from Apia and brought with you on the ferry.
There is no public bus to Ananoa Beach.
