Mangrove Forests, Sandy Beaches & Turtles
Just a short boat ride from Libreville, off the coast is the Pongara National Park . In addition to mangrove forests and a vast savanna, you will find pristine white sand beaches where large numbers of turtles hatch their eggs every year between the months of November and February. In the dry season there are wonderful whale and other marine excursions. A wide variety of game can be seen in the park, including elephants, buffalo, hippos, chimpanzees and brush hogs. Pongara is the perfect destination to combine relaxation at the end of your trip with the remarkable wildlife of Gabon .
