The beaches in The Gambia are everything that you would expect of a tropical paradise, warm sea water, miles and miles of un-crowded sandy beaches and swaying palm trees.
Be warned that the tides and currents along the Gambia's coastline are surprisingly strong, and sinkholes and sand bars are common, though the ocean generally remains on the shallow side a good distance into the water.
Never touch a jellyfish even if it is dead and washed up, it can still sting you badly. The sand on the beaches has an especially interesting quicksand like quality in spots where the tide has left but water still saturates the ground.
