Day 1: Friday – Departing to Loango Lodge, Gabon

From Port Gentil you will go on a 3-hour boat ride to Omboué. Therefore it is recommended to bring along some snacks/drinks during the trip.

where the Loango Lodge staff will welcome you and drive you to the lodge for lunch on the large sun terrace overlooking the lagoon. While you’re enjoying lunch, buffalos and elephants can sometimes be seen passing by in the park across from the lagoon!

In the afternoon, you have a chance to relax at the lodge, or to start to discover Loango national park: by car into the savannah, on foot into the mangroves, or by ‘houseboat’ along the shore.

After returning from your safari, enjoy a drink at the bar and a culinary treat from our chef de cuisine while you feel the cooling breeze from the lagoon.

Day 2: Saturday – Excursion possibilities in Loango national park

Today, you can relax at Loango Lodge or discover various parts of the park: by car into the savannah, on foot into the mangroves, or by ‘houseboat’ along the shore.

Game drives
Game drives in a 4x4 jeep are an easy and comfortable way to view the park and see wildlife such as buffalo, elephant, red river hogs and sitatunga. In the rainy season from November to April, you can find large mammals roaming freely on the beach.
Walking Safaris
You can venture out with one of our eco-guides into the forest. On foot is one of the best ways to learn more about the diversity of the park. You can encounter wildlife such as elephants and buffalo, but even more so, discover the more inconspicuous forest animals and birds.
Deep sea fishing
The point where the lagoon empties into the ocean contains some of the largest game fish in the world, making it an ideal spot for fishing – and only 10 minutes by boat from Loango Lodge!
Whale Watching *)
From mid-July to mid-September, humpback whales visit the coastline of Loango National Park. Go out on a boat with our skipper to look for these impressive, playful mammals.
Cultural Walks
From the lodge, you can go on a cultural walk to the nearby village or the “Operation Loango” school, which is sponsored by Africa’s Eden’s sister company “Société de Conservation et Développement”.

*) Please note that sightings cannot be guaranteed
