This place has indeed one of the most beaches in West Africa.We stayed several days and enjoyed three delicious meals. Unfortunately our solar panels could not charge our battery enough to keep our fridge and fans working, and there is no electric hookup possible, so we regrettably had to leave.

Very beautiful spot looking out to the sea. Lovely shade under the palms.
We were looking forward to the food but at 4pm when we went to enquire about dinner told the kitchen was closed as it was Wednesday!
Cost for 2 camping with RTT was 6000 if take dinner otherwise 10,000.

The most beautiful place on our trip so far. Right by the sea under palm trees. Very good food. WLAN available.

Not easy to access the place due to a lots of branches along the last kilometres. We are 3.2 m high but we made it with some machete work every so often. Its worth it, it is a beautiful place. We paid 5k CFA to camp, and got some food in the evening at the restaurant. 8k if you eat your own food.

Beautiful spot right on the sea, very calm and easy to swim. We were told we could camp for 5000 a night if we also took dinner there. We asked how much was dinner and he said 5000, however up receiving the bill after three days the first dinner was 5500, the second was 6000, and the third was 8500. Beers were 1500. We asked if he served wine by the glass but instead he brought us a bottle, which we found on our bill for 13,000. Gus was welcoming to us, really enjoyed long conversations in the evenings.

The place is open and run by Gus. You can park next to the beach and ask some locals meals. Very nice guy.

We did not stay at his place so we do not know the price but we spoke a bit with him as we where Chez Jojo Lodge.

Très bel endroit, en pleine nature. Le propriétaire, italien, depius 9 ans s'engage à préserver et à mettre en œuvre la protection de l'environnement, à planter des arbres et à protéger activement les animaux. Magnifique plage isolée, la nuit il n'y a que le bruit de la mer et des animaux nocturnes. Bonne bouffe au km 0, tout vient de la mer en face et de la brousse à l’arrière du Kara Krou. Prix ​​à partir de 8.000 cfa pour poisson très frais et bien cuit à 13 000 cfa le menu complet. Top les langoustes vraiment uniques pour 10.000 cfa. Très grandes portions de nourriture. Ah, le pâtes italienne 🤗. M. Gus est un personnage particulier, riche en expérience africaine et en anecdotes intéressantes. Une belle rencontre.
