Getting Around by Water
There is a ferry between Malabo, Bata and Douala. The trip takes about 12 hours. There are four classes of fare.
Getting Around by Road
Not all roads are paved, although the majority are. On Bioko, the north is generally better served with tarred roads. During the rainy season some roads are only passable in a 4-wheel drive vehicle. Police and military roadblocks are common; travellers may need to show their passport, driving licence and/or vehicle registration and explain their reason for travelling. New roads are under construction and repair in Malabo, Bata and a few outlying areas.
Minibuses run from Bata to Mbini and Acalayong on the coastal road. Bush taxis connect Malabo with the island’s two other main towns, Luba and Riaba, and also run from Bata to Mongomo and Ebebiyin; they can be hired hourly or daily. There are some car hire facilities.
