From Abidjan to Assinie

Assinie sits on a strip of sand between the Aby lagoon and the Atlantic, at the eastern end of the Ivorian coast. Camp guests don’t have to plan any of it: the airport transfer and the boat are part of the week.

The camp from the air: palm trees and thatched roofs on a strip of sand, the Atlantic breaking on the left, the Aby lagoon behind. — Assinie-Mafia from the drone: the ocean on one side, the lagoon on the other, the camp in the palms between them.
