There is nothing quite like Limbe's beaches. The sand here is a deep volcanic black, a striking legacy of Mount Cameroon, and it sets the town apart from any other coastal destination in the region.
Down Beach
The most lively of Limbe's beaches, Down Beach is where fishermen bring in the day's catch each morning. Grab a table at one of the beachside grills and enjoy just-caught fish with plantain and pepper sauce.
Mile 6 Beach
A little quieter and cleaner, Mile 6 is perfect for swimming and sunbathing. The calm water and palm-lined shore make it a favourite for families and couples alike.
Tips for a Great Beach Day
Go early to beat the heat, bring cash for fresh food and drinks, and always ask before photographing the fishermen at work. Sunsets here are spectacular, so linger a while into the evening.
Spectre Suites is just a short ride from Limbe's best beaches, and our team is happy to arrange transport and recommendations. Our rooftop pool bar is the perfect place to unwind afterwards.
