Lamin Lodge

A multi-story wooden restaurant built on a mangrove creek with locally sourced materials. Visitors can paddle among the mangroves, watch the sunrise, and spot monkeys.

Lamin Lodge sits on the Lamin Creek near Lamin town. This hand-built, multi-story wooden lodge is known for its breakfast and grilled fish. From the upper terrace you can look out over the mangrove creek, and monkeys often come to visit. It is a popular departure point for boat trips through the Tanbi Wetlands mangroves, where you can paddle a dugout canoe to see kingfishers, herons, and women harvesting oysters. Half-day boat trips also run from here to Banjul. It is usually about 30 minutes by taxi from the resort area and is on the way to Abuko Nature Reserve.
