Travel in Libya
Security. Most countries around the world have issued travel advisories
for Libya - basically saying "Do Not Travel to
Libya". This is due to the dangerous security situation and
the high threat of terrorism, kidnapping, and crime. The areas
of Libya that border Algeria, Niger, Chad, and Sudan are
considered very dangerous. Bandits and armed tribal groups
operate in these areas.
Weather. Libya can experience severe weather.
The Sahara desert is extremely hot. Libya's rainy season is
from November to March. The highest temperatures are between
June and September.
Money. The local currency is the Libyan Dinar
(LYD). The use of credit cards in Libya is limited, it is a
cash economy. There are very few ATMs and Traveller's cheques
are not usually accepted.
Health. There are a number of vaccines
recommended for travel to Libya. In addition, travelers are
encouraged to bring their own medicine, have health insurance,
and a medical evacuation plan.
