Ibeno is well known for its rich crude oil reserves but, beyond that, its resplendent beach offers a nerve calming tourist attraction. At low tide, cars and motorbikes are able to drive through the edge of the waves.
The beach front offers breathtaking scenes that are spectacular to behold, whether at sunrise, daylight or sunset. The sound of her roaring waves is amazing, the cool breeze that emanates from the water is soothing to the soul. At the backdrop, the scattered gas that flares from crude oil explorations paint an image of flaming tongues of fire on the sea. Ibeno is about one (1) hour drive from the city centre of Uyo the capital of Akwa Ibom State.
