Pago Pago Travel Guide
American Samoa
Pago Pago is a small city of around 11,500 people and the capital of American Samoa, in the South Pacific. It sits on the island of Tutuila and is the territory’s main urban centre.
Most travellers arrive through Pago Pago International Airport, the only airport serving the city. The coastline is close by, but there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Pago Pago, so beach trips are not a defining feature of the immediate area.
