Lobito is a large city in Angola, and is known for its long and unique natural harbour and active port.

In Lobito, like the rest of Angola prices of pretty much everything, except alcohol, are high. Here are some places on the Restinga, the city's famous natural harbour:

  • Alfa Bar - Decent pizzas. Street tables that seem to be almost always full. Some more chairs closer to the beach.
  • Zulu - At the very end of the Restinga.
  • Luna - The newest bar\lounge opened in the summer of 2014. Very high standards for a bar in the province, nice atmosphere and good food but limited menu.
  • Jango Hotel Restinga - Recently renovated with very nice outside wooden deck and beach chairs.

Benguela is 33 kilometres away and is a historic city with some pretty colonial buildings.
