Jinack Lodge (Jinack Island, Gambia)

Jinack Lodge is a unique holiday escape located on a remote seafront on the island of Jinack (aka Coconut Island), just off the north west bank of the mouth of the river. The only 'disturbance' are waves crashing, palm fronds swaying, birds singing and the occasional cow passing by.

Review:

Jinack Lodge is basic holiday accommodation nestled on an an almost deserted beach with miles and miles of emptiness and separated from the mainland by a small strip of the Atlantic Ocean.

The rooms are kept simple but comfortable and clean. There is no mains electricity on the island however, solar energy helps to run the basic operations for the buildings.

The lodge is maintained by the local people and profits go back to the local people. Their fruits and vegetables are grown organically by the locals which helps to provide and income to local villagers.

The hideaway place won a Certificate of Excellence in 2013 from TripAdvisor. The eco-tourist lodge is an ideal destination for those who really do want to get of the beaten track and enjoy their winter holiday in Gambia in quiet and relaxing surroundings.
