River No 2 beach

My Salone friend picked me up from the hotel with a Keke at 11 am for the almost 1-hour ride to River No 2, the best beach in Freetown. Along the way, we stopped at a supermarket to buy drinks. The gate fee into the was was SLL 10.

There were very few people at the beach, which was nice. We got a seat by the edge of the sea to enjoy the cool breeze blowing in from the Atlantic Ocean while I streamed Afro beats from my Spotify account onto the Bluetooth speaker. We later bought coconut, which was being hawked on the beach. The coconut water had no flavour.

The fish and chips we ordered was really nice. It was Red snapper fish, sadly the rains started and we had to run off to one of the balcony of one of the bungalows and when it subsided we returned to the beach, only to be chased back by a heavier down pour. Meanwhile, in one of the open bars located on the beach, a DJ and Hypeman were dishing out local music, which got the gen z crowd gyrating.

The keke finally came back to pick us up at 8pm during the heavy rain, and it rained all the way back to the hotel.Okumaya devam et
