Côte Sauvage

The sandy shoreline of Côte Sauvage extends along the Atlantic Ocean with strong waves meeting the natural, undeveloped coastline of central Africa.

The beach has served as a vital resource for local fishing communities since the colonial period, supporting traditional fishing methods and maritime activities.

Local fishermen maintain their customs at Côte Sauvage by using traditional wooden boats and practicing time-honored fishing techniques passed through generations.

Visitors can reach the beach via paved roads from Pointe-Noire, with the journey taking approximately 30 minutes by car from the city center.

The beach presents a rare combination of untouched African coastline and active fishing operations, where marine birds gather near fishing boats.
