South

Rainforest and coast in southern Cameroon, best represented by the beaches of Kribi and the Lobé Falls, which drop straight into the sea.

South lies in southern Cameroon, bordering Equatorial Guinea, Gabon and the Republic of the Congo, with Ebolowa as its capital. On the western coast, Kribi is Cameroon's popular seaside resort, with fine-sand beaches and the Lobé Falls, which plunge directly into the sea; in the south, Campo-Ma'an National Park protects coastal rainforest, and in the east the region shares the Dja Faunal Reserve with the East Region. The climate is hot and humid, and the dry season (December to February) is the better time to go. Kribi is generally reached by road from Douala or Yaoundé.
