Beach fale

A beach fale is a simple thatched hut in the architecture of Samoa.

They have become popular in tourism as a low budget accommodation situated by the coast, built with a few posts, no walls and a thatched roof with a round or oval shape.

They are common in villages where they provide extra storage or space for dragon boats.

In Samoa, renting out a beach fale to visitors is a common means for providing extra income for families.
