Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
The published Ouano beach, wharf, mangrove walks and Isie/Konduyo visitor listings describe free access, but transport and guided activity fees are separate. Ouano is a nature reserve: free access is not permission to fish, collect, land on N'Digoro or ignore other protected-area rules. No distinct compulsory Ouano dive-park badge or land-visitor marine permit charge could be established from reviewed provincial materials. Rates below are advertised, not live quotes; the operator site and tourism price listings are not perfectly aligned. No unsupported currency conversion is made.
