Traveler's tips
I had the pleasure of discovering that the famous Bangui Windmills were easily accessible in less than a 45-minute car drive from Natsuca Beach Resort. These remarkable windmills function not only as an environmentally friendly energy source but also as a breathtaking spectacle, especially during the late afternoon. To maximize my visit, I made it a point to arrive a bit before sunset to witness the windmills against the backdrop of the golden hour. The warm, soft light created a truly enchanting atmosphere, making it an ideal opportunity for photography and simply admiring the view. What's more, this time often had fewer crowds, providing a more serene and tranquil experience.
