Douala (pron. /dualà/ o /duàla/) è una città del Camerun sudoccidentale, il maggiore agglomerato urbano del Paese; è il capoluogo della regione del Littoral e del dipartimento di Wouri. La città si trova sul golfo di Guinea e grazie al porto, all'aeroporto e al mercato più importanti del Paese, ne è la capitale commerciale. La maggior parte delle esportazioni (petrolio, cacao, caffè) passano dal suo porto, così come le importazioni e le esportazioni del Ciad, non avendo quest'ultimo uno sbocco sul mare.
