The Orango National Park is a protected area in Guinea-Bissau. It was established in December 2000. The park has an area of 1582 km2, which is partly marine. It covers the southern part of the Bissagos Archipelago, notably the islands Orango, Orangozinho, Meneque, Canogo and Imbone, and the surrounding sea. The marine area does not exceed 30 m depth. The park is administered by: Instituto da Biodiversidade e das Áreas Protegidas da Guiné-Bissau (Biodiversity Institute and Protected Areas of Guinea-Bissau). About 160 km2 of the park is covered by mangroves. It plays a crucial role for the reproduction of molluscs, fish and sea turtles. On the mainland, palm trees (Elaeis guineensis) are most noticeable, as well as savanna shrubs and sandy shores. It is also the main habitat of the African gray parrot (Psittacus erithacus) which is an otherwise endangered species in the subregion.
