Bata, Equatorial Guinea

Bata is the largest city and main seaport of Equatorial Guinea. It is located on the coast of mainland Africa, while the capital Malabo is on the island nof Bioko, a distance away.

Bata serves as the commercial hub for mainland Equatorial Guinea. Most of the cargo passing through here include timber and coffee. The discovery of oil in the recent decades has helped to boost the otherwise stagnant economy.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
