São Tomé & Príncipe中的安全性

人身安全

聖多美和普林西比的犯罪率與其他地區相比較低。小偷小摸多發生在人流密集的地區，例如市場、娛樂場所和海灘。扒竊和搶包事件尤其多見於聖多美市中心和熱門海灘附近。武裝搶劫和入室盜竊的案件比扒竊案件更頻繁，但嚴重的暴力犯罪仍然罕見。遊客通常可以在白天和晚上安全地在首都四處走動。該國目前沒有恐怖主義威脅。針對遊客的詐騙包括提高計程車價格、ATM 機操縱和多收服務費。上車前務必協商好出租車費。在銀行提款，而不是在街上的 ATM 提款，以降低受騙風險。靠近沿海地區的海灘和夜總會需要格外小心，因為大多數輕微犯罪都發生在這些地方。雖然當地人熱情友好，但有些人可能會將遊客視為容易牟取暴利的目標。首都偶爾會發生與經濟困難和發展投資相關的社會騷亂。腐敗問題可能是一個問題，偶爾可能會有人要求賄賂。嚴禁拍攝總統府、軍事設施和政府大樓。如遇搶劫未遂，請交出財物而非抵抗。所有事件請立即報警。避免展示昂貴珠寶、大量現金或貴重電子產品。海灘通常無人看管，海流可能較強。

極端暴力

聖多美和普林西比的暴力犯罪率仍然很低。該國極端暴力事件極少，武裝搶劫和暴力犯罪相對罕見。遊客白天和夜晚都可以安全地在包括首都在內的大多數地區行走。雖然有通報發生武裝搶劫和入室盜竊，但發生頻率低於週邊國家。偶爾會發生一些孤立的搶劫演變成暴力事件，但這些事件缺乏組織性。當地幫派主要從事搶劫、持槍搶劫和竊盜等輕微犯罪，而非嚴重的暴力活動。目前沒有跡象顯示該國存在黑手黨式團體或大型組織犯罪網絡。該國近期沒有恐怖主義歷史，但也不能完全排除攻擊的可能性。聖多美和普林西比被認為是一個和平的目的地，目前沒有恐怖主義威脅。 2022年11月發生了一次未遂政變，導致四名襲擊者被安全部隊擊斃，但這在一個原本穩定的民主國家中只是一起孤立事件。儘管發生了這起事件，人們普遍認為該國仍保持著強大的政治體制。謀殺率較低，歷史數據顯示，2000年代末至2010年代初，每10萬人口的兇殺率在2.81至8.05之間波動。外國犯罪者透過這些島嶼進行販毒，有時會招募公民充當毒騾，但這對遊客的直接威脅微乎其微。

政治動盪

聖多美和普林西比定期舉行競爭性選舉，並經歷了多次敵對政黨之間的民主權力交接。在一個經常發生暴力權力交接的地區，該國被普遍視為一個穩定的民主國家。政治機構相對強大，但腐敗和治理不善加劇了民眾的不滿。民間騷亂偶爾會發生，尤其是在首都。經濟困難以及圍繞投資和發展處理的政治糾紛可能引發抗議和示威活動。在2022年9月的選舉中，示威者封鎖了投票站，抗議飲用水短缺，並在選舉委員會總部外焚燒輪胎，以抗議選舉結果延遲公佈。 2025年1月，總統以政府和總理長期缺席和未能應對經濟挑戰為由解職，並給予執政黨72小時組成新政府的時間。集會自由普遍受到尊重，但組織者必須在公眾集會前兩天通知當局。 2023年8月，政府在一次高峰會期間暫停了集會自由15天。示威活動可能會影響當地的服務、交通和交通。雖然抗議活動通常不會引起暴力，但緊張局勢可能會升級。政黨賄選仍是選舉期間的一個議題。政府腐敗和缺乏透明度仍然是持續存在的問題。 2022年11月的一次未遂政變導致四名襲擊者喪生，但該國迅速恢復了穩定，並維持了其民主框架。

應避免的區域

聖多美和普林西比沒有明確規定旅行者必須完全避開的區域。該國是非洲較和平的國家之一。然而，某些地方需要格外小心。例如，避開陰暗的小巷、臭名昭著的街區、偏遠地區和城市郊區，尤其是在天黑之後。海灘地區需要格外警惕，因為大多數輕微犯罪都發生在這些地方。天黑後應避免前往人跡罕至的海灘和海濱。海灘附近的夜總會、酒吧和酒館尤其需要小心，尤其是在獨自旅行時。在首都以外的地區，由於漆黑一片且基礎設施匱乏，不建議夜間出遊。應避免前往郊區和貧民窟。在奧博國家公園健行或探索鮮為人知的地區時，由於缺乏電話服務且距離最近的城鎮較遠，最好跟隨導遊。遠離主要路線的偏遠地區在緊急情況下難以獲得幫助。基礎設施並不總是符合國際標準，一些橋樑和道路狀況不佳，尤其是在大雨之後。除非其他人知道您的計劃，否則應避免前往遠離主要路線的完全偏僻的海灘。海洋風雲莫測，洋流湍急。鄉村地區較保守，對某些旅客來說可能有挑戰。首都聖多美和普林西比的某些區域需要格外小心，尤其是在人流密集的公共場所，例如容易發生扒手的市場。總體而言，這些島嶼被認為是安全的，沒有戰區或極度危險的地區，但所有島嶼都應採取常識性預防措施。
