Lobe's waves carry thousands of river shrimps to be rushed in
Guinea's Gulf.
A sign reads "33".
We are 33 km from Kribi, the seaside resort of Cameroon, nestled in the hollow of the Gulf of Guinea.
On both sides of the road, a rather monotonous landscape and suddenly, at the bend in the road, here is the Atlantic!
Here, no sea spray, we are close to the Equator.
But an indescribable softness, which envelops us immediately.
One of the jewels of Kribi is the Lobe, a river teeming with shrimps with a taste like no other.
This river has the exceptional geographical feature of flowing directly into the ocean in the form of waterfalls.
For the Maabi and Batanga people, this heavenly place is above all a place of beliefs and very important cultural practices.
