This is the biggest port in the country. The wholec ontry lives also from fishing. This is a great place to be in contact with locals.

Moreover, labor regulation has caused high labor costs. The port has thus become costly and inefficient, and has lost market share to such West African ports as Dakar (Senegal) and Abidjan (Ivory Coast).
