Bureh Beach

Reviewed By termar - Hamilton, Canada

Located some two hours from Freetown [at least by lumbering overland truck], the whole feel of the Bureh Beach is relaxation. Most camped on the sand while some pansies stayed in basic rooms in a nearby hotel, our group venue for breakfasts and dinners. The sand is great. Most of the swimming area is sand. It is not a deep bay so you can go quite far out. The arc of the bay is picture perfect. Volleyball is an option. There were other restaurants and several sets of cabanas. Seafood was fresh that day. We headed out on an excursion to nearby Banana Island from there. Trinket buyers were about. We were there on a Sunday and Monday, late night music the first night being a bit annoying. Sunsets did not pan out. It is overall a good spot to recharge the batteries.

Lumley Beach

Reviewed By Yahans-16 - Freetown, Sierra Leone

The stretch has a line of different range of hotels (budget, luxury and a mix) and bars overlooking the sea (seafoods, Chinese, Filipino European and local). Sunset is just great and there is a nearby landing beach where you can actually buy freshly brought-in fish. The beach front is quite clean except for periods where the tidal wave brings in lots of sea weed, but in all it’s a lovely place for relaxation and to share fun moments with family and friends. Several spots for free parking were also available and most of the facilities actually had free internet. It’s worth visiting

Cotton Tree

Freetown, settled by freed American slaves, regards this tree as a lasting landmark of freedom.

Reviewed By Dakota57 - Poughkeepsie, United States

This tree has been here forever (or so it would seem)! It is a place to meet people, and a place to remember the history of returned slaves from the US to Freetown. The tree experienced a fire during our visit, but seems to be recovering ok. It is a landmark, and important piece of history.
