Sustainable Eco Tourism & Conservation Project In Gambia

The local village of Jinack Niji is based at the creek side Jinack Island. The villagers are subsistence farmers and fishermen, who are dependent on natural resources for the livelihoods.

Since 2005 we have worked closely with the community leaders, villagers and local craftsman to build and run Djembe Fever Lodge and in 2014 we opened the Feel Free Lodge in a prime location on the beach.
