Upolu - I surfed Samoa may 2012 and had a good trip. for accomodation i would recommend a place in a village called Tafitoala (maybe mispelt) called 'Sine P.J. Fale'. The family who run it are real sweet. Neil is a good man too, he knows the island back to front. He has a boat and can sort you out a wave. I think he mostly hangs out at Coconuts

Surfing South Upolu - Their are 3 places to stay all next to each other at the village of Siumu.
Coconuts - nice resort for families or couples
Maininoa Surf Camp - Strictly cheap low buget surf camp with basic accomodation and facilities holds approx 45-45 surfers
Sinalei Resort - Adults only nice resort
A boat runs from Maininoa Camp with the 'crowd' no camp members pay each trip.
Coconuts has a small 'tinny' which holds 5 surfers pays as you go
He can organise also a trip to Salanis when it works which is about a 300 mtr paddle over flat water.
I understand the Surf camp there is getting rebuilt soon
Also if you are keen you can rent a car at Coconuts/sinalei and go venturing along the coast we saw some nice breaks going east on our bus tour but not there next dat due to swell change

Samoa South Coast- Coconuts beach club - Hey Mate- Just got back from Samoa a few weeks ago. Took the wife to Coconuts and it is almost completely re built after the tsunami. She was happy and I got good waves at a couple different spots with the surf guide at Coconuts, Neil. Nice guy who knows all the waves. I would go there again for sure. It was the spot.

Stuart - Hi mate i went a few months ago and you would never know anything happened all the main areas didnt get affected. Went with girl friend and every 1 was super nice to us and scored a few waves. Good all round trip though.

Crime? - Hey, I was looking at Samoa but i heard the crime was up due to desperation post tsunami. Understandable but it doesnt make for a great holiday. Anyone been recently that could comment on their experience?
