Ferry schedule from Apia to SavaiiCountry forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Samoa | ||
Hi, Does any one know the last ferry from Apia to Savaii in the evening? I heard there are about 5 sailings a day, but couldn't get exact sailing schedule. We arrive in Samoa at 5:30pm and would love to go straight to Savaii, if possible. | ||
Unfortunately this would not work. The last boat leaves at 4 pm. And the ferry does not go from Apia but from Mulifanua, which is quite close to the airport but about 20 miles from Apia. | 1 | |
Agree with wksamoa on this. Aggies is right next door and may not be the introduction to Samoa you are seeking if you are heading straight to Savai'i. A taxi in and out of Apia will cost $20AUD each way (about 40 tala), plus your accommodation in Apia. Airport Lodge is quite a bit cheaper and you could get a taxi to Mulifanua to get the ferry. If you are on foot, make sure you have something sorted about getting picked up on Salealoga on Savai'i as it can be a hassle getting the bus from there (there is a bus interchange but it is a few blocks walk). | 2 | |
