A groundbreaking initiative aims to establish Liberia's initial Special Tourism Economic Zone, situated at Lake Piso within Grand Cape Mount County. This development, as reported by MICE Travel Advisor, stems from a collaborative agreement between the national tourism body and the Special Economic Zones Authority.

Lake Piso, the nation's most expansive lake, merges with the Atlantic Ocean near Robertsport, a locale celebrated for its surfing opportunities. Pavement work on the 12.5-kilometre road connecting Robertsport and Madina commenced earlier this year.

For those interested in exploring Robertsport's attractions, including its renowned surf spots, additional information can be found on the official Liberian tourism platform. To delve deeper into the specifics of this new zone, readers can consult the original MICE Travel Advisor article.
