Exploration in South of Loango National Park

Loango National Park in the western Atlantic coastline of Gabon in Africa is famous worldwide for its surfing hippos. But for who never saw an elephant swimming, I strongly recommend them to visit the south of Loango NP during the rainy season. I was exploring this part of the park with some of my guests when we surprised that bulky mammal crossing the lagoon in the jungle to reach the beach side of the park like the surfing hippos always do.
