The Gambia is a country in Western Africa. It is the smallest country on the African continent and is bordered to the north, east, and south by Senegal, and the Atlantic Ocean in the west. The River Gambia flows through the centre of the country and empties into the Atlantic Ocean.

Gambia is pretty popular with package holidays. On the coast there are quite a few holiday villages where white Europeans are flown in by the package every week and red Europeans are flown out one or two weeks later. The Atlantic Coast resorts of Bakau, Fajara, Kotu and Kololi make up the heart of The Gambia's tourist industry. But there is a lot more than just golden beaches.
