Libreville Seafront & Baie des Rois
Bord de mer & Baie des Rois
A seafront boulevard running along the estuary, linking the presidential palace, Triumphal Boulevard and the newly built Baie des Rois waterfront park, a signature view of the city.
Libreville's seafront boulevard (Boulevard du Bord de Mer) runs for several kilometers along the Gabon Estuary, lined with palm trees and sea views. It passes the white seaside Presidential Palace (photograph it from outside only; entry is not allowed, and do not aim your camera at the guards), the Flame of Peace sculpture on Triumphal Boulevard, and the newly built Baie des Rois waterfront park. Many locals walk and jog here in the evening, and roadside stalls sell grilled fish and grilled corn. The full stroll takes about 1–2 hours, and you can make a detour to see the Hassan II Mosque.
