Close to neighboring Liberia, this former trading post, whose remains are today difficult to identify, is especially renowned for its lighthouse, which was the first in Côte d'Ivoire. But also for having stolen the limelight from the declining Sassandra, becoming in 1971 the second deep water port of the country, and de facto its second economic pole. Its initial vocation was the export of wood; today it is the first cocoa port in the world.In 2020, San Pedro had a population of more than 277,000 inhabitants from all ethnic groups in the country, but also from Burkina Faso, Mali, Ghana, Guinea, Nigeria, Niger, Mauritania, Lebanon, Liberia and Sierra Leone, as the main components of the population.
