Cap Estérias
A fishing village on a headland about 30 km north of the city, with rocky shores, a lighthouse and seafood restaurants. It's where locals head on weekends for seafood.
Cap Estérias sits about 30 km north of Libreville. This fishing village faces the Atlantic, with rocky reefs and a lighthouse along the shore. At low tide, you can watch locals gathering shellfish. The small seaside restaurants are known for fresh lobster and grilled fish, and they are especially busy on weekends. The waves here are large and the rip currents strong, so take care if you swim. It takes about 40 minutes by taxi or car, and it pairs well with Arboretum Raponda Walker for a half-day tour of the northern coast.
