Flawless beaches meet total tranquility

Hello, and welcome to Sierra Leone. If you’re looking for Africa’s best kept beach holiday secret, you’ve found it. So keep your voice down! Once a haven for freed carribean slaves, Freetown, with its stilt-standing buildings, stands as a monument to those peoples still. The peninsula has Sierra Leone’s best beaches, and the relaxation can be helped along by some of the lobster barbequing outside every beach bar and restaurant. If you get sick of the beach, you can head to mountains in the west or national parks in the east. In fact, another well-kept secret is the endangered pygmy hippo population here. If you want to see one up close and personal, you’d better VISIT SIERRA LEONE!
