Playa de Palea, Equatorial Guinea

Equatorial Guinea is located on the west coast of Central Africa and is the only African country where Spanish is an official language. The country consists of a mainland region (Río Muni) and several islands, including Bioko Island, where the capital Malabo is located. Equatorial Guinea is rich in oil reserves – oil exports account for over 90% of its GDP. Interesting fact: Equatorial Guinea has one of the highest literacy rates in Africa.
