PDA Etiquette in Equatorial Guinea

Public displays of affection are usually kept very modest in Equatorial Guinea, so holding hands is generally fine but kissing, hugging, or other intimate gestures in public can draw disapproval, especially in more traditional settings. In cities like Malabo and Bata people may be a bit more relaxed, but it is still best to stay discreet around elders, churches, and family gatherings.
