Palolo Deep Marine Reserve, Apia

Great for snorkelling! Be sure to head out at high tide so you clear the reef marked by the bouy. Snorkels for hire but recommend buying some in Apia at Coin Save as they come in handy else where on the island. Padi Divers also come here on request

Amazing views. Take rubber shoes as the beach and water have coral base.

Unfortunately I came here on a wet dull day but that didn't stop me enthusiastically from entering the water to see all the fish. There were 3 other people in the water when I arrived but they didn't go out to the deep part and i sure as heck wasn't going out there alone. I was satisfied near the shore though as there was still plenty to see. I recommend coming on a sunny day with friends.

Highly recommend place to spend time! This beach reserve is owned and operated by a family on their property. There is a small fee per person and snorkelling gear is available for hire too. There are beach fales, benches and tables to relax at by the sea. The sea is great for snorkelling, you can find some exciting fish right up by the edge of the beach – no need to go out too far. The coral helps keep the water fairly calm and not too deep. Showers are available to wash off afterwards too.

Beautiful spot to go snorkelling. We went on low tide and once we navigated through the seaweed, we found the path through the coral out to the hole that was jam packed with marine life. We were very impressed!!! Highly recommend
