Îles Ehotilés National Park, National park with islands in Sud-Comoé, Ivory Coast.

Îles Ehotilés National Park is an archipelago of six low islands in the estuarine zone separating Aby Lagoon from the Atlantic, in the Sud-Comoé region. Assokomonobaha, Balouate, Meha, Nyamouan, Elouamin and the sacred island Bosson Assoun lie among channels and lagoon arms. Mangroves dominate the coastal fringe, while the interiors hold dense tropical forest.

The protected area became official in 1974 following community recognition of the need to safeguard the islands. Its creation emerged from local efforts to preserve historical sites within the archipelago.

Balouate Island hosts a large fruit bat colony that holds meaning for the surrounding villages. The bats feature in local traditions and connect the islands to people living nearby.

Access to the islands is by boat across Aby Lagoon, and tourism is the only activity permitted on them; fishing continues in the surrounding waters. The six islands lie between the lagoon and the Atlantic in Sud-Comoé, with Bosson Assoun about 2 km from M'braty. Arrange boat transport and any permits with local operators before setting out.

The park hosts over 100 bird species from different families, including year-round residents and seasonal visitors. This rich diversity makes it a notable destination for bird watchers exploring the region.
