There are lots of beaches so that would be a good thing to take in mind when considering sight-seeing.
There is little tourist support in Equatorial Guinea. Prices for a ‘tour’ of the island are shocking ($400/day), but keep talking until you get to $150. Equipment can be a clapped out van. One needs to get at tourism permit in Malabo, Ebebiyín or Mongomo from Ministry of Tourism and submit a detailed letter of request, then wait a minimum of 2 days for permission to be granted.
There are many things to see on both Bioko island and the continent such as Piedra Bere, Oyala city and the Djibloho Hotel, Parque Nacional Altos de Nsork, Parque Nacional Monte Alen among other sights. The Bradt Guide gives ample details (there is an electronic copy worth buying and downloading) on how to navigate the EG bureaucracy to be able to see the country's surprising and little known natural beauty.
Tour to Ureka: Ureka is a small village in the southern region of the island. With a driver it is possible to get there by yourself. You can enjoy the amazing waterfall and the unspoiled beach. This beaches will allow you to walk for hours to become one with the mother nature. In your way, you will find more waterfalls and amazing landscapes. Just be careful with the ride, as the small rivers may increase significantly over a couple of hours. It is always a good idea to check with the locals.
Ilachi Waterfall: Ilachi waterfalls are the longest one in the country with more than 250m tall. They are located close to the city of Moka. After an hour of trekking across the jungle and crossing some rivers, you will see them in fully. Do not be sad if the fog block your view, it disappear quickly. There is an extreme danger of getting lost in the jungle, so hiring any tour operator in Equatorial Guinea become a must.
Annobón Island: this small island was first discovered by the Portuguese, that is the reason they local language is Fa´dambo is similar to Portuguese. With only 17km2, the people on this island have a quite and calm life based on the sea. It is worth it to visit in a Weekend as Ceiba Intercontinental is flying only Fridays and Sundays.
Corisco Island: The secret jewel of Equatorial Guinea, this small island has white beaches and crystalline waters. It is really complex to go as the airport is not open for the public. The only way to get there is by boat weekly or renting a speed boat, which may take 1h and 30 minutes. But, it you have time, it is worth it.
Ebebiyin is known for its large number of bars. They drink a lot of wine.
-Malamba is the most famous local drink in Equatorial Guinea. It is a locally produced sugar cane alcohol drink. Very sweet and tasty. It can be found normally on the streets and markets, rarely on restaurants.
- Osang, it is a traditional tee greatly consume in Equatorial Guinea, it is used from breakfast and to heal some ills. It is similar to Citronella

Including Equatoguinean Spanish (Español ecuatoguineano).
Equatorial Guinea (Spanish: Guinea Ecuatorial;[a] French: Guinée équatoriale; Portuguese: Guiné Equatorial), officially the Republic of Equatorial Guinea (Spanish: República de Guinea Ecuatorial, French: République de Guinée équatoriale, Portuguese: República da Guiné Equatorial),[b] is a country located in Central Africa, with an area of 28,000 square kilometres (11,000 sq mi). Formerly the colony of Spanish Guinea, its post-independence name evokes its location near both the Equator and the Gulf of Guinea. Equatorial Guinea is the only sovereign African state in which Spanish is an official language. As of 2015, the country had an estimated population of 1,222,245.[12]
Equatorial Guinea consists of two parts, an insular and a mainland region. The insular region consists of the islands of Bioko (formerly Fernando Pó) in the Gulf of Guinea and Annobón, a small volcanic island which is the only part of the country south of the equator. Bioko Island is the northernmost part of Equatorial Guinea and is the site of the country's capital, Malabo. The island nation of São Tomé and Príncipe is located between Bioko and Annobón. The mainland region, Río Muni, is bordered by Cameroon on the north and Gabon on the south and east. It is the location of Bata, Equatorial Guinea's largest city, and Oyala, the country's planned future capital. Rio Muni also includes several small offshore islands, such as Corisco, Elobey Grande, and Elobey Chico. The country is a member of the African Union, Francophonie, OPEC and the CPLP.

The only Spanish speaking country in Africa | Short history of Malabo, Equatorial Guinea
#equatorialguinea #Malabo is the capital city of Equatorial Guinea. The country is the only nation on the continent that speaks Spanish. I take you through a short history of Equatorial Guinea.
Equatorial Guinea's capital is Malabo, historically known as Santa Isabel. It is located on the rim of a dormant volcano on the northernmost tip of the island of Bioko (also known as Fernando Po). It has one of the Bight of Biafra's most challenging climates (Gulf of Guinea). The republic's financial and commercial hub is Malabo. The principal industry is the export of cocoa, lumber, and coffee, and its harbour, one of the deepest seaports in the area, can dock numerous ships. Also, it has an international airport with connections to the continental Equatorial Guinean city of Bata, as well as to other nations in Africa, Europe, and the US. With the riots of 1969 and later when the Nigerian contract workers left the city in the middle of the 1970s, the city's European population started to drop. Business and development in the city increased as a result of the 1980s and 1990s discovery and exploitation of the nation's oil riches.
