Port-Gentil or
Mandji (1993 est. pop. 80,000) is the second-largest city of
Gabon, and its leading
seaport. It is the center of Gabon's
petroleum and
timber industries. Although it lies inshore, the nearby mainland is a remote forest area and it is not connected by road to the rest of the nation. The city lies close to
Cape Lopez, the westernmost point in Gabon.
