RIO MUNI

The Rio Muni (1°02'N., 9°35'E.) is approached between the coastal bank extending off the N shore of Bahia de Corisco and Bancos de Elobey (see paragraph 3.56). It enters the bay between Punta Yeke and Pointe Coco Beach, 1.4 miles SSW. Both of these entrance points are low, wooded, and fronted by rocks. A stranded wreck is reported to lie close off Pointe Coco Beach. The river is navigable as far as Isla Ngande, about 9 miles above the entrance. The channel has a least depth of 6.2m. Pilotage is not compulsory, but pilots are available. The border between Equatorial Guinea and Gabon is situated along the center of the Rio Muni above the mouth.
