Brief
- Try local dishes such as jollof rice, cassava leaves, palm-butter soup, fried plantain and grilled fish. Ginger beer and palm wine are also commonly found.
- Monrovia is hot and humid year-round, with heavy rainfall and localized flooding possible during the wet season. Allow extra time for road journeys, especially on poorly drained streets.
- Roberts International Airport is outside Monrovia, so arrange reliable transport in advance and allow substantial time for the airport-city journey.
Safety and health
- Malaria and other mosquito-borne illnesses are common. Use repellent, wear covering clothing and sleep under screened or treated nets where needed. Dengue is also transmitted by mosquitoes. (

- Avoid swimming, wading or bathing in untreated freshwater, since contaminated rivers, ponds and lakes can transmit schistosomiasis. (
- Drink sealed bottled water and use good hand hygiene. Medical facilities and specialist care for international visitors are limited, so comprehensive travel insurance and medical evacuation cover are advisable. (
- Avoid contact with sick people, wild animals such as bats and primates, rodents, and bodily fluids. These precautions reduce exposure to Ebola, Lassa fever and other serious infections. (
- Yellow fever vaccination is recommended for travellers aged 9 months and older. A certificate is required for travellers aged 1 year and older arriving from countries with yellow-fever transmission risk. (
