Banjul - Post Report Question and Answers
What are some interesting/fun things to do in the area? Can you recommend any “hidden gems"?
Monkeypark, Wassu stone circles, camel riding on the beach, chimpanzee island, World cultural heritage James Island, Juffurre,... - Aug 2015
I would recommend going south of Brufut for more secluded beach experiences. Also, try going to the Chimp Rehab Project and staying overnight with them for great views of chimps and hippos. Do not settle for a guide who is not part of the Chimp Rehab Project staff...they don't have the same access to the islands. - Jun 2014
Beach, restaurants, up-country trips, bird watching, swimming, golf, tennis, football (American and International) at the MRC, basketball, fishing trips. The Bijilo monkey park is a must! and if you can Baboon Island. - Jun 2013
Monkey Park at Bijilo. Chimpanzee park at Baboon Island. Boat trips on the river to very interesting spots including James Island (now Kunta Kinteh Island). - Sep 2011
