The coastal council lies south of Limbe I, situated on the Gulf of Guinea. Its territory extends over the Bimbia River and the mangrove coast of the Cameroon estuary.

Coastline: Notable geographical features include Cape Nachtigal, the Man’O War Bay, and Cape Bimbia.

Bimbia: This locality is a significant historic slave trade site on the Gulf of Guinea, active from the 17th to the 19th century. Remnants of this era are still visible in the Bimbia Bonadikombo forest.

On August 6, 1862, King William I of Bimbia (of the Isubu people) sold a district that would become Victoria (present-day Limbe) to the English Baptist missionary Alfred Saker.
