Quissama National Park, National park in Bengo, Angola.

Kisama National Park extends across 8651 square kilometers along the Atlantic coast, between the Cuanza River in the north and Longa River in the south.

Founded as a hunting reserve in 1938, the territory received national park status in 1957 under Portuguese administration of Angola.

Local communities maintain traditional methods of natural conservation through generations in the Bengo region.
