In this article, we had studied the touristic site of the Kalamu River in Boma, « Bas-Congo » province in DR Congo. The river had known biophysical changes precisely because of human activities directed toward her.

The results obtained show that the river was Kalamu a tourist site visited by various categories of people (fishermen, sailors, officers RVM, population, etc.). It was noticed that the river had lost its normal bed and that during heavy rain, it flooding occurred. The pollution observed introduced the risks of eutrophication of water borne diseases, loss of beautiful scenery, etc. The Baobab site Stanley still remained a special place to visit for tourists of all categories. This publication was done to call the conscience for environmental preservation of the touristic site.
