Gabon

Discover essential information about Gabon

Gabon is a Central African nation on the Atlantic coast, bordered by Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon, and the Republic of Congo. It has set a global standard for conservation by protecting 11% of its territory in 13 national parks—preserving pristine Atlantic beaches, mangrove swamps, and some of the most biodiverse rainforests on Earth, home to forest elephants and hippos bathing in the ocean surf.
