Cameroon

A Central African country known as "Africa in miniature," with rainforest, volcanoes, beaches, savanna and diverse cultures all in one nation.

Cameroon lies in west-central Africa on the Gulf of Guinea. Its capital is Yaoundé, its largest city and port is Douala, and both French and English are official languages. Its landscapes vary widely, from southern rainforest and the western highlands to the northern Sahel grasslands, which is why it is called "Africa in miniature." Main attractions include Mount Cameroon, the highest peak in West Africa, the beaches of Limbe and Kribi, the Dja Faunal Reserve (a World Heritage site) and the national parks of the north. The dry season runs roughly from November to February. The gateways are Douala and Yaoundé international airports; some areas carry security risks, so check travel advisories before you go.
