This lush inland area behind Olosega Village is a living snapshot of traditional Samoan farming, where fertile marshlands support thriving taro plantations. Known locally as a taufusi, the marsh is accessed via a signposted 4WD track leading from the southern end of the main road through dense greenery and banana groves.
The short but rewarding 5 to 10-minute walk takes you off the tourist trail and into the agricultural heart of Olosega, where you’ll see first-hand why this taro variety is considered among the best in American Samoa.
