Port Gentil

Port-Gentil, Gabon's second-largest city, is a vibrant center of activity nestled on a peninsula along the Gulf of Guinea.  This city thrives on its petroleum and timber industries, but also boasts stunning beaches, charming fishing villages, and swaying palm trees.

Explore the city's heart at Place de France, the main square featuring landmarks like the Town Hall and the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption.  Immerse yourself in the lively culture at Le Grand Marché, a bustling market overflowing with fresh produce, local crafts, and a vibrant atmosphere.  Relax on the white sands and swim in the crystal-clear waters of Pointe Denis Beach.  For a deeper dive into the city's soul, visit the Museum of Arts and Tradition or the striking Saint Louis Catholic Church.

When it comes to shopping, Le Grand Marché offers more than just cultural experiences.  Here you can find unique souvenirs and handmade crafts to treasure.  As night falls, Port-Gentil comes alive.  Enjoy lively bars and clubs at La Villa, catch a movie or unwind at CanalOlympia Mandji’Ozangué, or discover local spots for a more relaxed evening out.
