Get your camera ready: you'll spot these iconic offshore rock formations on your drive into Pago Pago from the airport. Legend has it that a couple named Fatu and Futi had sailed from Savai'i (Samoa), looking for Tutuila; their canoe sank, and the pair were transformed into these beautiful tree-topped mini-islands. You can swim here and cross between the two at low tide.
