SIERRA LEONE
RELAX ON SOME OF
SIERRA LEONE’S MOST BEAUTIFUL BEACHES
Stretched across the Atlantic are some of the world’s most beautiful white and unspoilt beaches.
Lumley Beach
This is the most visited beach in Freetown. It is because of its easy access and the number of hotels and restaurants that are situated along the beach road. This beach is mostly jam packed, especially in the weekends, but mostly on holidays. Here, no one sleeps. Nightclubs, casinos, Cultural parades, beach football and many more activities take place. Lumley continues to attract thousands of visitors.
Mahera Beach
This beach is over 50 miles long and lies a stone throw from the international airport in Lungi. It is easily accessible from anywhere in the locality. During a normal day you can bike down or just talk to any point of the beach. With fishing activities taking place in some parts of the beach, it is not uncommon to experience a dramatic fishing scene. It is a safe place to be at. The beach also serves as the shortest transfer post for visitors heading to the capital city of Freetown.
Sussex Beach
A bit from the Freetown, you will arrive at this untouched beach with golden sand lines. This beach area is still sparsely inhabited which makes for a perfect escape. The heavily forested rainforest of the lion mountains of Freetown gives a scenic beauty that adds to experience. In some areas, the forest hovers just over the beach, providing both shade and exotic forest fruits. Where there are little rivers that meander upwards the forest, the cascading fresh water from the falls meet the salt water from the Atlantic Ocean in an opening, which is perfect for a dive.
Kent Beach & Freetown
Farther away from the capital, but along the same coastal line, Kent is one such village that offers much. Ruins dated back to early slave era are markedly visibly in the village. The village itself if inhabited by fishermen and their families, who all, commonly help you to get an insight into the life of the people in the village. The shores of the village, with massive limestone are protected from the massive waves pounding the golden sandy beaches. Kent is popularly known as the shortest transit point of transfer to the famous Banana Island.
