We visited the trench and I was so looking forward to swimming in the crystal clear waters, however we were out of luck! The water was a murky brown, still climbed down anyway as we had paid 15 tala each. I guess it would have been nice to have been told why. Perhaps tides or rain? Anyway worth a visit...

The people I was with were brave enough to tackle the steep ladder down (and then back up). I couldn't have done it and was worried for them; I held my breath while they were on the ladder and assumed the responsibility of photographer. They liked it though!

This amazing natural trench is a must see in Samoa!
Whilst the ladder climb was hairy-scary for me (it took me 2 go to get down there), it was well worth it. The water is so clear & refreshing and being down in the trench was like being in another world!
Set amidst beautiful gardens and on the edge of...

This is stunningly beautiful. The ladder is strong, secure and not too bad of a climb.

Awesome. The ladder down is very solid so don't worry about that. Be sure to take your snorkle and mask. Its so clear and great to see around. A platform is great to jump off, and plenty of room to put your towel and gear on. We really enjoyed it here. A must do in Samoa

The local people are starting to understand tourism - amazing gardens, great...

$15 tala per adult $7 tala per child 6 and above.
The trench itself is amazing - a steep walk down on an even steeper ladder. Our 5 year old was too young to attempt it, our 7 year old was too freaked to try but anyone who dares will be rewarded with a great experience.
There are blow holes...

This trench is truly amazing! Once you take a step onto the ladder, don't look down! 30m deep trench this site is one that is definitely worth going back for! We went on a sunny day and it was so beautiful just swimming around. Highly recommend putting this on your list of things to do in Samoa! Entry is WST...

We stopped at this site as part of a half day tour organised by Sinalei Reef Resort. It was so worth the effort to experience such a truly magical act of mother nature!!
