Bioko

Bioko is an island of Equatorial Guinea, northwest of the mainland. Malabo, in the north, is the country's capital and home to a neo-Gothic cathedral. In the south, turtles lay eggs on the beaches around Ureca in the dry season. Also during this time, Arena Blanca Beach, near the western town of Luba, teems with butterflies. The dense rainforest in the Luba Crater Scientific Reserve provides a habitat for primates.
