Ilha de Luanda: It’s not really an island but a small peninsula. It stretches for 5 km right in front of Luanda. It’s home to some good beaches, restaurants, and bars.

Marginal de Luanda: It’s a long avenue/boulevard from Luanda’s Port to Luanda’s Island. It was renovated a few years ago, and it’s now the favorite spot for Angolans and Expats to walk or run in Luanda.

Currency Museum: Right next to Angola’s National Bank, there’s a currency museum. There was quite a big noise about it and how much money it was spent.

S. Miguel Fort : The fort is at the top of a small hill, so you must climb a “few” stairs. However, you will be rewarded with a fantastic view of the Marginal, the island, and the city.

Angola’s National Bank: An imposing pink building built in the colonial era! In our opinion, it’s the most beautiful building in Luanda.

Miradouro da Lua: Miradouro da Lua translates to Moon’s Lookout. Not because it’s a great place to look at the moon (which probably is) but because it’s a lunar landscape.

Kissama National Park: It’s about 75 km south of Luanda, thus close enough to easily do a day trip and far enough to be completely outside the city’s influence.
