A colonial capital gone gently to seed by the beach, a lagoon city rebuilding a reputation as West Africa's economic engine, and cocoa grown a short drive from where it ends up in the market stalls.
The best time to visit Abidjan & Grand-Bassam is Nov–Feb, when typical daytime highs reach about 30°C (86°F).
