River, west-central Africa, mainly in Gabon. It rises in the Republic of the Congo and flows northwest, then west, emptying into the Atlantic Ocean south of Port-Gentil after a course of 750 mi (1,200 km). It is navigable for less than one-third of its length but is heavily used for shipping goods, including lumber, to the coast.
