Massacre Bay
September 19, 2009


On my third weekend in town I hiked with coworkers Ken and Aaron to this secluded beach in the northwest of Tutuilla. Massacre Bay gets its name from the twelve members of Jean-Franáois de La Pérouse's crew who, in 1787, made the mistake of annoying some Samoans in this cove and paid for it with their lives.
