Bissau is Guinea-Bissau capital. Bissau, Guinea Bissau’s city, significant port, and administrative and military center, is situated on the Geba River estuary, off the Atlantic Ocean.
Bissau has a tropical savanna climate, which is wetter than other climates of its kind but not nearly as wet as a tropical monsoon climate.
From November to May, there is almost little rain, although the city gets roughly 2,020 mm (80 in) of rain throughout the other five months of the year. High humidity makes heat discomfort intense during the rainy season, and even three months previously.
Bissau is situated on the Geba River estuary, off the Atlantic Ocean, at 11°52′ North, 15°36′ West (11.86667, -15.60). The ground around Bissau is exceptionally low-lying, and the river, despite its small flow, is navigable by ocean-going boats for roughly 80 kilometers (50 miles) beyond the city.
Bissau is the country’s main city, a significant port, as well as the country’s educational, administrative, and military hub.
