My friends and I enjoyed a great day at the locally named Bali’ha’i Island on the west coast of Samoa’s home island Savaiʻi, the largest and highest island in Samoa and the Samoa Islands chain.
Our guide Falou showed us how to make Coconut Milk in ten easy steps, here they are in images.

That looks like a super experience! I love the unique experiences that destinations have to offer. Especially when they are only there. This Samoan tradition seems to be one of those things.
