Dakosta Island Beach Camp

Guinea-Bissau


Newly opened by Bissau-Guinean-American champion kickboxer Adlino Costa, this camp on Ilha de Bubaque feels worlds away from the relative bustle of town – it's situated at the far southern end of the island. Well-built bungalows are tucked just back from a beautiful white-sand beach. The pièce de résistance is an amazing communal table built from a dugout canoe.

You need to arrange transport in advance with Adlino, either from Bissau or Bubaque town. Pricing was still being determined when visited.
