Cameroon
Cameroon, on the Gulf of Guinea, is a Central African country of varied terrain and wildlife. Its inland capital, Yaoundé, and its biggest city, the seaport Douala, are transit points to ecotourism sites as well as beach resorts like Kribi – near the Chutes de la Lobé waterfalls, which plunge directly into the sea – and Limbe, where the Limbe Wildlife Centre houses rescued primates. Cameroonians speak mostly French and English, which are foreign but official languages.
WEATHER
In Cameroon, the climate is tropical, semi-arid in the north, and humid and rainy in the rest of the country. In the southern inland region lies a plateau, located between 500 and 1,200 meters (1,600 and 3,900 feet) above sea level, where the altitude moderates the climate, making the heat more bearable.
