Luba is the second largest town of Bioko in Equatorial Guinea, having a population of around 7,000 people. It lies on the west coast beneath volcanic peaks and is a port for the logging industry. Attractions in the town include several beaches and a colonial hospital.

The city may be joined either by sea or by a main road linking Luba to the country's capital, Malabo. The road being halfway finished, it takes about an hour and half driving to go from Malabo to Luba.

Recently, a free port has opened near the city, creating a deep water access for larger vessels, offering oil industry vessels an alternative to the congested port of Malabo.
