7 Best Fishing Resorts & Lodges in Samoa 🎣 [2024]

1. Le Vasa Resort

For a low-key resort holiday on Upolu offering an idyllic balance of relaxation, adventure and affordability, choose Le Vasa Resort. Right in the heart of fishing territory, Le Vasa is fully equipped to take you out on their 17 ft centre-console boat with Shimano rods and reels, GPS system, black pete lures and even an entertainment system. A couple of drinks and a sandwich per person are included in full-day charters and you’re always welcome to stock up by purchasing more drinks at the bar. For something a little different, why not try fishing the Samoan way with a canoe or net fishing? There’s also the option for shore casting and bottom fishing with all the gear rentals available from the resort. That’s a lot on the fishing, so you’re going to have to learn more about the accommodation over in the Top 25 Resorts in Samoa.

2. Va-i-Moana Seaside Lodge

Va-i-Moana Seaside Lodge might call itself a “lodge” but the variety of rooms plus activities and dining on offer certainly provide a more resort experience on Savai’i. It is one of the top places on the island for fishing charters, being one of the venues for the annual Samoa International Game Fishing Association tournaments. The lodge has two fishing boats to make the most of the converging north and south currents off the nearby cape, ideal for catching that elusive marlin or simply enjoying being out on the water. Note that all fish caught remains the property of the accommodation, but it will be served to you as fresh fish for dinner.
