Giant Clam

Loved this place, once you've seen the Giant Clam go snorkelling around the rest of the bay, visabiltity can vary depending on how much fresh water mixes with the salty water, but well worth the mission

Cool, massive clams

This was great. There are a lot of clams, some of them are massive and some of them have incredible patterns, It's just the right level of difficulty: easy enough to find but you do have to actually swim out and look for them. It...More

Passed through on our way changing hotels, didn't have towels etc, so decided to make the journey back the next day with our snorkeling gear, although i think they might have some available to hire as well. There were also kayaks available which people with...More

Don't clam rave about the place

This was our 1st stop on a day tour of Upolu and easily one of the highlights. It is great to see the villagers managing and preserving their part of the lagoon and turning it into income too. On a ralling tide i was not...More

Beautiful day

We had a bit of trouble finding the place - we got different directions from 3 different people. When we finally arrived, just getting out of the car was nice. My husband went snorkeling and said it was great. It was different from regular snorkeling...More

Colourful and amazing

Great place for a quiet relaxed snorkel, especially for novices... colours and sheer size of these clams is incredible. Take cash for the privilege to swim and to park. There were kayaks for hire too, would make for a great afternoon in the sun.
