Crossing the lagoon near Gamba

We arrive in Gamba with a domestic flight. We may use Bas' house, which is situated directly bordering the lagune. From here we will depart by boat in the direction of Loango. With our guides Zico en Eric we talk over the plan once more in detail and we doublecheck the route to go.

Beyond the lagune and the estuary to the sea begins Loango. We sail up the river for a while and there, in about the third bend, a colony of hippopotamus 'lives'. Two years ago we were here and their address appears to be unchanged.
