A comprehensive guide to having an astronomical amount of fun in Cameroon Part 2 : Seme Beach

Hey guys! I'm back from Spring break. I had a phenomenal time visiting my friends Yuks, Q and a whole lot of cool people. Post coming soon. Let's pick up right where we left off shall we? so we ended the last Cameroon post at the bus station. We took the bus from Buea to Limbe (less than 30 minutes), met up with friends and then hired a taxi to Seme Beach. A trip to Cameroon is not complete without a visit to Seme Beach in the South West city of Limbe. Seme Beach is like something off a fantasy novel. The beach is pure black sand, remnants of volcanic activity from the nearby Mount Cameroon, and the water is always fresh, clean and warm. The area is controlled by the Hotel Beach management, so if you are not a guest at the hotel, you have to pay a small fee (about 3 USD) to access the beach.

After fish and more beers, we returned back to Buea and got ready for the next adventure. See you in Part 3 of "A comprehensive guide to having an astronomical amount of fun in Cameroon."
