Principe Safaris - An Overview

Principe Overview

Príncipe is a small island off the west coast of Africa that could perhaps be likened to the Galápagos Islands - an isolated, volcanic retreat with a generous helping of endemic bird species. Accessible only by plane from São Tomé - which in turn is fairly hard to get to - the trip is well worth the effort; Príncipe is exquisitely covered in ancient rainforest, cocoa/coffee plantations and empty beaches. Some people may recognise the beach famously used in a recent Bacardi advert…

Príncipé is best known for its bird, photographic and beach safaris and an ideal combination with Gabon or a Central African Republic/Congo safari.

Other Options

Other Options

Príncipe is best combined with a safari in Gabon or Central African Republic/Congo. It is an excellent destination for a honeymoon safari with a difference.

There are other islands on the east coast of Africa which offer a similar type of beach/sea experience. Look at Réunion Island for an off the beaten track destination or try Mauritius, Seychelles and Lamu Island or Zanzibar for more main stream beaches.
