Additional Surfing Infos
 Come with several boards, because when it gets big, there is only 50 to 70 cm of water depth from the wave and the bottom bed, as you can break your board very easily. More over you can not buy any surf equipement(no surfshop). Also respect a lot the locals.

no worries
Alec, you don't need to worry about people overcrowding this spot. Gabon is the most expensive country in the world to fly to and the waves are fickle. I'm sure palplanche is a bomb spot those few days a year when you get those big W/WSW swells, but chances are traveling surfers wont catch those swells. I was in Gabon last august and I didnt meet a single traveling surfer. I love Gabon, but I wouldnt travel back there just for the surfing. now the fishing on the other hand . . .

You French Vampires are mere...
Le monde ne doivent etre 'agreeable' avous just en fait vous etes 'local'. Etes-vous Africain? Au contraire, mon frere, vous etes un homme blanche de France qui a colonize cet part du monde, et maintenant vous voulez respect du monde. Palplanche est un ville de petrol construit d'argent des hommes riche et etranger comme vous-meme. C'est un endroit pour les gens qui vivre sur l'argent des parents ou le petrol d'Afrique. Et maintenant vous demandez le respect du monde? Pourquoi? Vos vagues sont tres petite le pluspart d'anneee et votre mode du exploiter Afrique pour ses riches est tellement un sujet de ridicule. Votre pays (France) ont fait des negotiations avec Saddam Hussein pour petrol pendant sa son petrol etait interdit par le UN. Vos citoyens sont rapide a critiqent le USA, mais leurs mains sont sale avec de huile du Mid-East et Afrique aussie.
