About

Tanji is a working Mandinka fishing village 20 minutes down the coast from Kololi — and one of the most photogenic places in The Gambia. The colourful pirogues come in mid-afternoon; the fish-smoking sheds behind the beach produce the smoked bonga shad you'll see in Gambian kitchens across the country.
