Aiga-i-le-Tai, Administrative district in western Samoa.
Aiga-i-le-Tai district encompasses Manono and Apolima islands, plus a portion of Upolu's western coast, covering 27 square kilometers between the main Samoan islands.
Archaeological excavations at Mulifanua in 1973 revealed Lapita pottery fragments and tools dating back approximately 3,000 years, indicating early Polynesian settlements in this area.
The district name translates to 'family by the sea' in Samoan language, reflecting the deep connection between local communities and their maritime environment.
The Mulifanua ferry terminal operates daily services between Upolu and Savai'i islands, serving as the primary maritime transportation hub for the region.
This district contains the only archaeological site in Samoa where researchers discovered decorated Lapita pottery sherds, marking its significance in Pacific prehistory.
