Sierra Leone eSIM for planned stays
Choose mobile data for a Freetown stay, a peninsula address or a separately arranged visit to Tiwai Island.
If your booked arrival uses the water crossing from the Lungi side, save three separate instructions: the airport pickup, the transfer arrangement and the onward pickup on the Freetown side. A peninsula stay needs its exact beach or accommodation meeting point. Add Tiwai Island only for a visit already arranged with a local organiser, and keep that arrival point and lodging note offline before departure.

How eSIM works in Sierra Leone
Install the eSIM over reliable Wi-Fi before departure and leave its line off until Sierra Leone. On arrival, select Horizon for mobile data and enable data roaming on that line. Check the Sierra Leone validity rule before purchase: the period begins with the first successful connection to a supported network in the country. During the stay, a compatible dual-SIM phone may keep your home SIM active; its provider may charge for use.
Install your eSIM
Scan the QR or auto-install in the app — no physical SIM.
Land & connect
Data activates on first connection at your destination.
Size it to your trip
Pick the profile closest to your trip. The estimate assumes normal use — maps, messaging, photos, a short call home.
As a rule of thumb, a 3–4 day city break runs on about 1–3 GB, a one-week trip on 3–5 GB, a two-week multi-country tour on 8–12 GB, and working on the road takes about 1 GB a day, so 15 GB or more for two weeks.

In total, a 10 GB data allowance covers roughly 3,300 shared photos, 167 hours of social media and browsing, 29 hours of video calls, 125 hours of music streaming, or about 2000 hours of maps and navigation. Messaging apps barely use data.
Important cities in Sierra Leone
Lungi and Freetown · City guide
Lungi and Freetown
For a booked arrival across the water, save the Lungi airport pickup, the transfer contact and the Freetown-side pickup separately. Add the first city address, entrance and contact to the final note. Keep every step available offline before landing, and ask each contact to confirm where their part begins.
Lungi and Freetown eSIM — set up before you fly →Freetown Peninsula · City guide
Freetown Peninsula
For a peninsula stay, save the actual accommodation or beach meeting point rather than a broad Freetown label. Keep the host's contact, entrance description and return arrangement in the same offline note. Include the nights outside the city centre and the return day when selecting validity.
Freetown Peninsula eSIM — set up before you fly →Tiwai Island · City guide
Tiwai Island
Add Tiwai Island only when a local organiser has already confirmed the visit. Save that person's contact, the exact arrival point, lodging instructions and next address before leaving Freetown or the peninsula. Keep the details offline and cover every arranged night plus the onward day.
Tiwai Island eSIM — set up before you fly →Why Horizon
Plan each arrival separately
Cover both arrival and departure days, every onward night and any arranged stop outside Freetown. Size data first for messages, occasional navigation and app calls, then add uploads or a connected device. Hotspot is free on every Horizon plan, devices share the plan allowance, and Horizon does not throttle it. The Sierra Leone eSIM is data-only with no local number. Horizon offers Sierra Leone country plans outside the Africa regional bundle.

Frequently asked questions
What should I save for Lungi to Freetown?
Save the airport pickup, water-transfer contact and city-side pickup as separate items, followed by the first address and entrance. Keep all details offline before landing.
How do I choose for a city stay?
Cover arrival through departure and size data for maps, messages, app calls and documents. Add work uploads or a connected device only after those routine tasks.
What changes beyond Freetown?
Add every peninsula or arranged Tiwai night and the return day. Save the exact accommodation or organiser's arrival point, local contact and onward instructions offline.
Can I share data in Sierra Leone?
Yes. Hotspot with the Sierra Leone plan is free, and Horizon does not throttle it. A compatible phone is required; the phone and connected devices share the plan allowance.
Does the plan include Liberia or Guinea?
No. The Sierra Leone plan does not include Liberia or Guinea. Choose a separate suitable plan for each of those countries if they are part of your trip.
Will data work throughout a water transfer?
A Sierra Leone country plan does not promise reception throughout a water crossing. Save the transfer contact, city-side pickup, first address and essential booking details offline before departure.
