Samoa Weather & Climate

Located in the South Pacific Ocean, Samoa's tropical climate is ideal for travellers who enjoy warm weather year-round. Temperatures average between 24°C and 31°C with sea temperatures sitting around 27°C - 29°C making it perfect for swimming and outdoor activities all year. Historically December to February are the warmest months and the cooler months are generally June to August although temperatures still remain warm and pleasant.

Samoa's dry season generally occurs from May to October which is a popular time for visitors seeking plenty of sunshine, lower humidity and clearer skies. For many visitors, the the best time to visit Samoa is considered between July and September.

The wet season occurs from November to April where higher temperatures and humidity bring heavier rainfalls throughout the region. January is often the rainiest month experiencing short downpours and thunderstorms which often pass quickly but can also result in rougher seas and stronger swells. Perfect for experienced surfers! The ocean is invitingly warm enough to swim all year round, however visitors should take care during the wet seasons.

Samoa has surf all year round, with the dry season bringing south-east trade winds and big swells of up to 10ft. The wet season brings north-east trade winds and the swell drops to a more comfortable size of 2-5ft.
