Monrovia sits on the Atlantic coast and hosts historical sites like Providence Island, the National Museum of Liberia, and the bustling Waterside Market. The country uses a dual currency system where both the Liberian Dollar (LRD) and the US Dollar (USD) are accepted, and travelers should budget for higher prices on imported goods and secure transport. The weather is tropical and extremely wet, ranking as one of the rainiest capital cities in the world, though there is a distinct dry season from December to April.
