Escape to Mafafa Beach, a secluded and palm-fringed bay with calm, crystal-clear waters perfect for snorkelling and swimming. Tucked away on the north coast of Ofu Island, this spot is a favourite fallback when the southern beaches get too rough. The peaceful bay is often home to sea turtles, so keep your eyes peeled for a magical underwater encounter. Getting there is part of the adventure – a scenic 15 to 20-minute walk along the coast, with ocean views the whole way.
