Archipelago in the South Pacific Ocean

Samoan Islands

The Samoan Islands (Samoan: Motu o Sāmoa) are an archipelago covering 3,030 km² (1,170 sq mi) in the central South Pacific, forming part of Polynesia and of the wider region of Oceania. Administratively, the archipelago comprises all of the Independent State of Samoa and most of American Samoa (apart from Swains Island, which is geographically part of the Tokelau Islands). The land masses of the two Samoan jurisdictions are separated by 64 km (40 mi; 35 nmi) of ocean at their closest points.
