Ureca

The turtles that come out to the coast as soon as the dry season begins are the nicest part of Ureca. Turtles come in a variety of species, each with its own own personality. The area's seaside environment is stunning, and tourists may participate in a variety of activities such as hiking, jungle safaris, and more. In Ureca, swimming is also permitted.

You know you're somewhere unique from the moment you step out of your car and witness the first waterfall cascading down the cliff to the moment you're swimming beneath another waterfall deep into the rainforest. Ureca is a secret planet located two hours south of Bioko Island.

When you first see the first waterfall, you may question why you should bother going any farther. You could spend the day on the beach, grilling and paddling in the surf, just as the natives do. Waterfall number two, however, may be found after walking for almost an hour along the empty black sand beach. It pours into a pool suitable for swimming and fishing, hidden in the bush. You could second-guess whether you should continue. You could spend the entire day here, soaking in the refreshing water.
