Infos svp - Bonjour,
Je pense venir à Pointe-Noire courant Septembre pour rendre visite à de la famille. J'ai vu de belles photos et j'ai remarqué que sur certaines vous étiez en combi...Est-ce que je devrais en amener une? Aussi, je n'ai pas vu beaucoup de droites...Y a-t-il des spots ou il y en a?
Merci de votre réponse...Particulièrement si c'est des locaux. J'espère bien me faire des potes là-bas!
A bientôt! Bonjour du Gabon!

opinion - not a class wave,but many beach break,and few points breaking all year round.safe country,but not for french who work for total,and spend nothing in the country,and still beleive its their colony.so,come with a soul surfer,and you'll enjoy.no surfboard?we'll find for you.la Pyramide is the place.Best atmosphere in town.The Prophet
