Talofofo

The village of Talofofo is located in the southeastern side of the island and is part of the Haya (Southern) District. This village derives its name from the saying “entalo’ I fe’fo”. “Entalo’ I fe’fo” means between the cliffs where this place is situated and surrounded by cliffs. It is possible that another word gave this village its ending name. The word “fo’fo” means a bubbling spring. Because the Talo’fo’fo River and the Talo’fo’fo Falls are located in this village, the name could possibly mean between the bubbling springs.
