Samoa

Apolima Island
Apolima (5 km˛) is located within the Apolima Strait between Upolu (8 km to the southeast) and Savai'i (9 km to the northwest), lying 1 km outside Upolu's fringing coral reef. The nearest island to Apolima is that of Manono — 2 km to the southeast (visible at the right edge of the satelite image).

The island comprises a steep-sided, collapsed, volcanic tuff cone; a breach on the northern wall creates a small bay leading into the flat caldera floor where a small village is located. The outer slopes of the island are generally devoid of vegetation and are actively eroding into the sea. Boat access is tricky and there is no organized accommodation on island.
