Geologically they are younger than the islands in French Polynesiavolcanoes on Savai'i erupted as recently as 1911. Consequently, the coral reefs fringing the islands have not had time to enclose deep lagoons, and the surf pounds directly on black volcanic rocks in many places. In other places in the Samoas there are small bays with some of the most picturesque beaches in the South Pacific. Source: Frommer's South Pacific, 8th Edition About Frommer's Contact Us Site Map
