The scenic road between Vatia and Afono is lined with gardens of ornamental plants and flowers. At the end of the road in Vatia is the school, and beyond the school begins a trail leading into the national park. It ends at a rocky cliff which points across Vai'ava Strait to Pola Island. Many Vatians work at the canneries in Pago Pago, and there is good public transportation to and from Pago Pago. Aiga buses from Fagatogo head to Vatia several times per day on weekdays. The village of Vatia can also be visited by hiking Mount ‘Alava. Vatia is one of the oldest settlements on Tutuila Island and it has historically been regarded as the principal place of eastern Tutuila. Vatia dwells around Vatia Bay which is protected and surrounded by green forested mountains and rich coastal reefs on its seafront. Vatia Bay has been described as Tutuila Island's most scenic area. A steep ridge curves around the village's west side and leads to Pola Island, which has been claimed to be the most photographed site on Tutuila Island. Pola Island is the most popular attraction in the village. (en)

  • Ватиа (англ. Vatia) — деревня на острове Тутуила в Американском Самоа. Населённый пункт расположен на северном берегу одноимённого залива. К Ватиа ведёт шоссе 006 — единственная дорога, пролегающая через национальный парк государства, сама деревня окружена национальным парком. Когда-то существовал пешеходный туристический маршрут через хребет Маугалоа от Лелоалоа к деревне, но после открытия трассы эта дорога более не используется. На территории поселения есть несколько бетонных бункеров времён Второй мировой войны, расположены они вокруг пляжа. Вдоль дороги между Ватиа и Афоно произрастают декоративные растения. Дорога ведёт к островной школе, от которой идёт тропа, ведущая в национальный парк. Большая часть жителей острова работает на консервных заводах в Паго-Паго, по этому маршруту ходит общественный транспорт. Автобусы Айга несколько раз в день совершают рейсы из деревни Фагатого к Ватиа. Среди туристов также популярен маршрут к горе Алава. Аполлон-11 приводнился в 1969 году неподалёку от поселения; в музее Хайдона в Паго-Паго представлена копия флага Американского Самоа, побывавшего на Луне в рамках этой миссии. (ru)
