Boali is located on National Highway 1 (RN1), about 100 km (62 mi) northwest of the national capital, Bangui. The road is paved until Bossembélé where the paved section becomes the RN3 towards Bouar and Cameroon while the RN1 continues to Bossangoa, and ultimately to Chad.
Situated on the Mbali River, Boali is noted for its waterfalls and for the nearby hydroelectric works. The Falls of Boali are 250 m (820 ft) wide and 50 m (160 ft) high, and are a popular tourist destination.
The two units of the Boali Hydroelectric Power Station, Boali I and Boali II, are located below the falls. They have a combined generating power of 18.65 megawatts, and are operated by the state-run Enerca. The completion of Boali I in the 1950s spurred several other industrial developments in the town, including the country's first textile mill, which began operating in 1954.
The Boali hydroelectric works supply power to the capital and 13 other towns.
