For a total immersion in the wildlife and to benefit from privileged moments at the heart of nature, the Eco-Village of Enamino proposes a comfortable, small capacity accommodation in large lodge-tent.Located on a small rocky cliff lining a long and deserted beach, our eco-friendly resort comprises a central “Restaurant-Bar-Reception” hut and 2 bungalows of 4 beds each.
Totally eco-aware in its design, our eco -lodge is powered by solar energy and oil lamps and occasionally with a small generator. To minimize our environmental impact, we collect rain water and use tech waste processing by composting and burning rubbish.

OUR ENVIRONMENT
Set between rainforest and ocean, alongside a still perfectly intact virgin beach, the Enamino site offers the choice between relaxation and activities.
A jewel case of special flora offering a unique and privileged view of animals coming all the way to the beach from the nearby rainforest lining the ocean, the beach abounds with :
- Ghost crabs and shells in the sand
- Many species of sea turtles (leather-back, green, olive ridley, hawksbill and more rarely the loggerhead) come to lay eggs on the beach from October to March.
- Hippopotamus, sitatunga antelope, duiker, forest elephant (assala), Western lowland gorilla or chimpanzee between the 2 lagoons surrounding the site.
Rocking softly in your hammock facing the ocean, you can observe :
- Dolphins swimming peacefully in groups along the waves in front of the lodge,
- The spectacular jump of the humpback whale which comes to mate and deliver in July and August, in the warm sea of Gabon.
You can listen to the well-defined songs of :
- The Gabon coucal, the hadada ibis
- A multitude of birds easily observable from the site: colony of rosy bee-eaters, flight of grey parrots, long-legged pipit, several species of sunbirds, hornbills, turaco, sea-birds, plovers and pink-backed pelican.
- Additionally, you may surf on Enamino’s rolling waves and fish from the beach.
