Liberia

Atlantic Ocean West Africa 579 km Coastline

Liberia—"Land of the Free"—was founded in 1847 by freed American slaves, making it Africa's oldest republic. The country has nearly 600 km of Atlantic coastline, with Robertsport emerging as West Africa's surf capital since peace returned in 2003. The Liberian Surf Union runs community-based tourism programs. Beyond surfing, the coast features mangrove-lined estuaries, traditional fishing villages, and Sapo National Park's rainforest reaching to the shore. Infrastructure remains basic, but adventurous travellers find unspoiled beaches and genuine hospitality.
