Buying a SIM Card in Equatorial Guinea ???????? - 10 Things to Know About Getesa & Muni (in English)

Equatorial Guinea is known for having one of the highest mobile data speeds in Africa and in the world. However, getting an Equatorial Guinean SIM card will be cheaper than international roaming in the country. Here is all you need to know about buying a SIM card in Equatorial Guinea!

For some reason, mobile internet is criminally expensive in Equatorial Guinea. Moreover, speeds are embarrassingly slow as well.

This is surprising because Equatorial Guinea is connected to several submarine cables. African countries with direct access to submarine cables have, on average, lower mobile data rates compared to landlocked countries.

What is even sadder is that the domestic broadband infrastructure is poor, meaning that those living in rural Equatorial Guinea have no or awful mobile coverage.

Even with all of this said, getting an Equatorial Guinean SIM card will probably be cheaper than international roaming.

Earth's Secret 8th Continent ???? (EXPLAINED)

Pico Basilé in Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea

Pico Basilé, located on the island of Bioko, is the tallest mountain of Equatorial Guinea. With an altitude of 3011 m, it is the summit of the largest and highest of three overlapping basaltic shield volcanoes which form the island.

Climb Pico Basile to enjoy sweeping views over the entire island from its highest summit. Accessible by guided tour only, the peak features a statue of the Virgin carrying baby Jesus on her back, in the style of African tribes.

Pico Basilé lies close to the city of Malabo. The very top is used as a broadcast transmitting station for Radio Television Guinea Ecuatorial and microwave relay station for various communication networks.

The peak forms a part of Pico Basilé National Park, created in April 2000. The boundaries of Bioko Norte and Sur runs near the summit.

Bioko was formed along the Cameroon line, a major northeast-trending geologic fault that runs from the Atlantic Ocean into Cameroon. This line includes other volcanic islands in the Gulf of Guinea such as Annobón, Príncipe and São Tomé, along with the massive stratovolcano of Mount Cameroon. Unlike the three other islands which are extinct volcanoes, its last eruption occurred in 1923.

Part of the Cameroon line, the flora and fauna of Pico Basilé and Bioko as a whole are similar to that of the montane regions of adjacent Cameroon and Nigeria. Multiple range restricted species occur on Pico Basilé, and one bird, the Bioko Speirops Zoterops brunneus, is wholly restricted to the volcano's higher elevations.
The island was inhabited in the middle of the first millennium BC by Bantu tribes from the mainland, who formed the Bubi ethnic group. Unlike other islands in the area, Bioko had an indigenous African population. The Bubi speak a Bantu language. The island has probably been inhabited by this or other Bantu-speaking groups since before the 7th century BC.

In 1472, the Portuguese navigator Fernão do Pó was the first European to sight the island while seeking a path to India.

The first ascent of the mountain by Europeans was made by English commanders between 1827 and 1828 under the Owen expedition. Its first official ascent was made in 1839 by the British John Beecroft who was later governor of the island that was once Fernando Po, now Bioko.
