Kajamor

The Gambia


This friendly place makes a great base for taking in Sanyang, with simple, reasonably priced accommodation just steps from the sun-kissed beach. There's a good seafood-slinging restaurant on hand and you can arrange excursions. Kajamor draws mostly Spanish travellers.

Airport transfers are available.
