Gambia, Kartong:
Sunshine Beach: a real paradise for stressed Europeans: time to relax…
If you want to soak up the sun at a favourable price, you should consider the Sunshine Lodge in Kartong. The south of The Gambia is more for those seeking relaxation and nature lovers, but the beaches are fantastic and the weather is very pleasant all year round. The thermometer is unlikely to drop below 20C, and during the day it can even scratch the 30 degree mark in February. What more could a contemporary who has been battered by the weather in Europe want?

Flights (one way) are starting from 120 EURO from Brussels. For example on 28 March 2025: 120 EURO per person. Frankfurt or Zurich will be more expensive.
At the African Atlantic coast only a few lodges are located directly at the beach
Away from the crowds of tourists, on the unspoilt beaches of Kartong in southern Gambia, lies a small, charming hideaway for those seeking relaxation and tranquillity: the Sunshine Beach Bar & Sunshine Lodge. Here, where the warm Atlantic Ocean gently rolls onto the golden sandy beach, visitors can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse themselves in an oasis of relaxation.
A place to switch off and enjoy
The Sunshine Lodge offers a unique blend of local and European hospitality. Guests can pamper themselves with a soothing massage, enjoy a relaxing manicure or pedicure or simply admire the breathtaking view of the sea with a hot coffee or a refreshing fruit juice. The motto is: ‘Time to relax’ – and that is exactly the programme here.

Culinary highlights on the beach
If you get hungry, you won’t be disappointed: the bar serves both traditional Gambian specialities and quick European dishes. Fresh ingredients and the relaxed atmosphere make every meal a pleasure. The lodge’s juices are particularly delicious. These can be ordered and are served fresh in front of the guests. They cost 100 Dalasi (approx. 1.40 EURO) per glass.

Sunshine Lodge is located at the Sunshine Beach… What a nice paradise
For travellers who want to stay for a few days or even weeks, Sunshine Lodge currently offers a very nice wooden house with shower and toilet. Simple standard, but very cosy. With a marvellous terrace overlooking the garden and beach. More cottages like this are planned.
Boss Yaya and his team are very concerned about nature and are busy reforesting Sunshine Beach. This will transform a deserted beach into a green oasis of relaxation.
One night costs around 15 US $
An overnight stay with breakfast costs around 1000 Dalasi (approx. 15 US $) for one or two people. A week costs around 7000 Dalasi, including breakfast for one or two guests. That is about 105 US $.
