Workation in Apia: the essentials
Apia runs along a harbour on the central north coast of Upolu and is the only real city in Samoa, with about 36,000 people in its urban area. Life is organised around church, family and village, and Sundays are very quiet. Robert Louis Stevenson spent his last years at Vailima in the hills above town, now a museum, and his grave is on Mount Vaea. Faleolo International Airport is about 40 km west along the coast. For remote work the clock is the catch: Samoa is 13 hours ahead of UTC, so overlapping with European hours takes real effort. Cyclone season runs roughly from November to April.
