Kribi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kribi is a beach resort and sea port in Cameroon, lying on the Gulf of Guinea coast, at the mouth of the Kienké River. It has a estimated population of 60,000(2007). It services sea traffic in the Gulf of Guinea and also lies near the terminus of the Chad-Cameroon pipeline.

The Lobé Waterfalls are nearby and there is a road inland, through the Littoral Evergreen Forest, as far as Lolodorf.

[edit] Port

Kribi is a possible location of a port for the export of iron ore from mines near Mbalam, about 500km away. Specifically, the port would be at Grand Batanga
