San-Pédro: the second port and the beaches of the south-west.

San-Pédro is the country’s second port and the place through which much of the world’s cocoa leaves Africa. For travellers it is something else: the gateway to the emptiest beaches in the country and to Taï National Park, the largest remaining primary rainforest in West Africa. 350 kilometres from Abidjan along the coast.

San-Pédro itself is a port: busy, functional, not pretty. What makes the trip worthwhile lies around it — the bays towards Monogaga and Sassandra, the fishing villages, and the road inland to Taï. Plan the town as a base, not as the destination.
