Kribi Beach

We got to Kribi after taking a small road from Yaoundé. Most of the hotels are beachfront since this is a tourist area for the citizens of Cameroon. In August, however, during monsoon season, the town is very quiet. We had a walk in the sand and enjoyed some of the views before heading to dinner. It was quite windy, cool, and very cloudy, but the water was a good temperature. I was struck by the beach. Towering palms interspersed with other "kola nut" trees that give plenty of shade and offer little seats in their huge roots that grow up into the air. The shore is littered with large seeds, red tones, remains of fish from fishermen and boats here and there.
