Packing List and other Independant State of Samoa Packing List Tips

Luggage And Bags: Bring a small backpack to use when traveling around the islands.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: You don't need to bring much, a towel, knelong shorts/skirt, t-shirt and sandals will do. And perhaps an umbrella. Bring something white to wear, if you want to blend in with the locals at churchtime on sundays. You'll probably get what you need at a nice price in the markets in Apia.

Toiletries & Medical Supplies: Sunscreen, antiseptic ointment, painkillers, syringe with needle (the doctor might use reusables) and insect repellent.

Photo Equipment: Film is probably cheaper other places and don't forget to bring a disposable underwater camera if you're going to do some snorkeling.

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: A towel, your favourite swimwear and snorkeling gear.

Miscellaneous: Swiss army-knife, a torchlight and The Lonely Planet Samoa guide book.
