Holidays in Dabou

Been up 'til dawn way too often lately? Dying for a break and a few early nights? Dabou might just be the answer. It's set among the beaches, coastal plains and rainforest of Cote d'Ivoire — nice and off the beaten track. (We bet you'll feel so relaxed, you'll be under the blankets by sunset!)

Plan some time to kick back with the ocean as your backdrop at Grand Bassam Beach, 65 kilometres to the east.

Mother Nature's artwork is yours to explore around Dabou. Just 35 kilometres away, Banco National Park is a terrific place to start. Parc du Banco sits 40 kilometres away and is another nice spot for some peace and quiet.

If you're the kind of traveller who loves experiencing the true local vibe of the area you're visiting, Stade Felix Houphouet-Boigny is one for your must-do list. Look into what live events are on during your holiday and roar along with enthusiastic local sports fans. You'll find the stadium 40 kilometres away in Le Plateau.

Seeking some other nearby localities? Lagunes Region is about 19 kilometres to the northwest, so jump in the car and start exploring! Alternatively, Abidjan, 40 kilometres east of Dabou, is also worth the time.

Bird watching and wildlife watching are a couple of great ways to take time out if the sightseeing crowds have left you feeling a little stressed.

Whether you would prefer to be beside it, in it or on it, we all love the water! Why not add some excitement to your getaway by going canoeing and boating?

The region's art galleries have something for all travellers. Step inside and see what's happening.

Do you feel like you need a bit of vitamin D? Think about planning a trip to one of the surrounding area's open-air exhibits.

If you're seeking an experience that goes beyond the physical world, you might like to visit some churches and cathedrals. It's a fine opportunity to learn a little about Dabou's religion.

To really experience a place is to try its food and drink, so prepare to nibble, gnaw, slurp and sip your way through Cote d'Ivoire. The only thing you need to take with you is a robust appetite!

Want some insight into the regional cuisine? We suggest you get a taste for tomatoes and eggplant, two essential ingredients which make up some of the dishes here.

When in Dabou, dine like the locals do. That means digging into a meal of fufu (boiled cassava and plantains) or kedjenou (chicken stewed with tomatoes and vegetables), some of the area's most loved dishes.

Your experience in Dabou will definitely be much more fulfilling if you take the time to memorise a couple of the local phrases and expressions. To start with, try to get your tongue around 'Je viens de ...'. It means 'I am from..'. Another one to keep in mind is 'Bon appétit !', meaning 'enjoy your meal'.

What better way to learn about the culture of a place than by witnessing a day of national celebration? There'll be many festivities taking place for Independence Day on the 7th of August.

When it finally comes time to leave, spend the last of your holiday allowance and say "À plus tard" to Dabou.

Kotoka International Airport (ACC) is the nearest terminal, 470 kilometres to the east. Make sure you leave yourself plenty of time to get there.
