Kissama National Park
About Kissama National Park
Kissama National Park gives you an easy way to experience Angola’s wild side without straying too far from Luanda. Known for its wide landscapes, recovering wildlife, and mix of river, coastline, and savannah, it feels broader and more varied than a standard day trip. It is a strong choice if you want nature, open space, and a safari-style setting that adds a very different side to your time in Angola.
When to visit
May to Sep. is the easiest overall window, with drier weather, cooler conditions, and more practical access across the park.
Most popular: June - August

Getting There
From central Luanda, drive south for about 70 to 75 kilometres toward Kissama National Park, which is the nearest major gateway and the usual starting point for visits by road. The park lies between the Cuanza River and the Atlantic coast, so the final stretch takes you into a much quieter, more open landscape.
