Tanéné is a sub-prefecture in the Boké Prefecture in the Boké Region, and a village, in Guinea Maritime between Boffa, Fria, and Conakry (Guinea). It is a "crossroads village" built around the gas station located just after the metal bridge on the river Konkouré. There are about 3000 inhabitants. The village has been growing rapidly since the construction of a bridge on the Fatala (also known as Rio Pongo downstream) in Boffa. For instance, the population of Guémèyiré on the right bank of the Rio Pongo has mainly moved to Tanéné. The economy is focused on small business generated by passengers swapping taxis.
