Angola
Relocation Africa has been servicing Luanda in Angola for 12 years successfully. We have serviced outlying locations for adhoc projects but these will incur an additional fees. With larger projects in outlying areas we are able to recruit and train a consultant within 4 – 6 weeks.
Climate
Angola is a huge country and the climate in the north is much more tropical than in the arid south. The rainy season in the north usually lasts from November to April. The south gets scat- tered rains twice a year, from March to July and October to November.
Accommodation
The majority of suitable expat housing is located within se- cure estates or “compounds” which are monitored by security guards or security companies. These are all located on the outskirst of Luanda. Free-standing homes and apartments with security are available in the city center.
Schooling
3 x International Schools. One offers the International Bacca- leaureate. An English school teaches the South African Curricu- lum and a Portuguese option teaches the Portuguese curriculum.
Healthcare
In Luanda there are one or two good private clinics, but these are extremely expensive and require immediate payment. The water supply is unsafe to drink, visitors should avoid eating unpeeled fruit and vegetables and the milk is unpasteurised and should be boiled; alternatively use tinned milk reconstituted with purified water. Drinking water should be treated or bought in sealed bottles (avoid ice cubes in drinks) and care should be taken with hygiene and food, particularly street food.
Shops
Belas Shopping mall is in the southern suburb of Talatona. Small and quite expensive with cinemas and food court. Also a Shoprite. Other supermarkets are Maxi and Kero. Casa dos frescose stocks South African produce and has good meat.
