Plage de Bénarès

Plage de Bénarès stretches approximately 1.35 kilometers along the Atlantic coast with white sand bordered by coconut palms and seashells in Conakry.

The beach was transformed from a shell exploitation site in the late 1990s when local youth cleared the area and developed it into a recreational space.

The beach serves as a central gathering place for families and community groups, hosting national celebrations, concerts, and cultural events throughout the year.

The beach operates with paid entrance fees, 24-hour swimming supervision, security services, restaurants, and rest areas managed by Bénarès Services organization.

Managed collectively by 400 local youth members organized into security, sanitation, and event coordination teams to maintain the facility's operations and cleanliness.
