Social life is largely limited to private homes and various boat or beach clubs.
Sailing, windsurfing, waterskiing, fishing and deep-sea diving enthusiasts have lots of room to enjoy their hobbies. Mussulo Island outside Luanda is reached by boat, public ferry or four-wheel drive car and makes an agreeable day's outing. The Angolans are hospitable and foreigners generally experience no difficulty in meeting and socializing with them. Indeed it is quite common for Angolans to invite guests to their homes and be treated to their traditional foods. In cases where staff do not speak Portuguese, Angolans are always willing to teach the language through socializing.
